RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — The North Carolina State Fair is looking for the state's best home kitchen cooking to take part in this year's Home Chef Challenge.

Every year, the N.C. State Fair offers a wide variety of competitions for cooks throughout the state who partake in the annual culinary throwdown. The hope for fair organizers and the Department of Agriculture is that it promotes the competitor's local and/or agricultural staples.

“We love seeing all of our home chefs come out each year with their recipes. The Home Chef Challenge has become an important part of the fair and a fan favorite,” said Kent Yelverton, fair director. “We are excited about this year’s competitions, featuring food categories such as the ‘EGG-stravagant Quiche challenge’ and 'Not Your Classic BLT Sandwich.'"
