A little over a week ago, my husband read an article in our local Creative Loafing that a SPAM Cook-off was being held at the Florida State Fair and that they were looking for one more chef to compete. Well, I’m always up for a new competition, so I emailed the organizer and volunteered.
I’ve never been a fan of SPAM, but I knew that, with a little creativity, I could make something that, even I would eat. Since I’m a World Food Championships Sandwich competitor, I knew that creating a SPAM sandwich would be the smartest choice.
Long story short, I created a Pecan Crusted SPAM Sliders with a Citrus Kale Slaw…and Won!!
