You get to be the food critic at the Annual Here's the Beef Cook-Off in Opelousas, Louisiana as pitmasters and area chefs prepare their best beef dishes. The culinary categories include gourmet, brisket, roast, gravies and stews, tongue, and ground meat. That's right; beef tongue is a delicacy in Cajun Country and can be sampled at the festival. If you think your cooking has what it takes to win, entry to the contest is $40. Call Jay Guidry at 337-351-1763 for more details. Prior to the cook-off, an old-fashioned trail ride takes off at 8am. It's $15 to ride plus you get tasty, authentic Louisiana cooking for breakfast. At the Here's the Beef Cook-Off, for only $10, you can dance and hear live music by local Cajun-style bands starting at 10am and eat all the award-winning food you want. This long-running annual event is sponsored by the St. Landry Parish Cattlemen's Association, Cattlewomen, and the LA Beef Industry Council. The Cattlemen's Association aims to educate people about the importance of the cattle and farm industry in St. Landry Parish and throughout the state of Louisiana.
