GRAND PRIZE WINNER – Steve Zurkey

Cape Grim grass fed beef tartare,  preserved Meyer lemon,  green pea puree,  “panzanella croutons,” creme fraiche,  English peas, coriander flower

 

RUNNER UP – Chris Ruhl

This is ribeye tataki. This preperation involves a high heat pan and very cold beef that is seared hard and returned to the fridge to slow the cooking then sliced thin to serve. For this dish I chose to pair the beef with lacto fermented cremini mushrooms, pickled ginger, green onion, dehydrated enoki mushrooms, and a sauce made from garlic, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce and apple cider vinegar cooked to a syrup. The plate was dusted with black garlic struesel to accent the charred tones from the seared ribeye.

RUNNER UP – Robbie Nicolaisen

Shoyu ramen w. seared spinalis, yuba skin, 63* egg, gochujang, pickled radish, nori, the whole green onion

RUNNER UP – Randall Wilkes

Grilled Cape Grim Ribeye, seared foraged oyster mushrooms, herb butter, red pepper tarragon emulsion, rosemary flowers, and bulls blood garnish.
