All the Right Ingredients at Men Who Cook
At the fifth annual Men Who Cook fundraiser for the Will County Children's Advocacy, Will County Auditor Duffy Blackburn took 1st Place in the entrée category, Sun-Times Media reports.
The fifth annual Men Who Cook culinary competition March 23 at Mokena's Pipefitters Local Union 597, 10850 W. 187th St., turned out to be an appetizing fundraiser on behalf of the Will County Children's Advocacy Center. About 50 cooks stirred up a pot of fundraising ingredients and set a table for appetizers, entrees, side dishes and desserts.
Will County Auditor Duffy Blackburn came up with the winning entrée, Jack Tacos, and Jay Healy of Hoff Law firm, Burr Ridge, came up with the wining dessert, caramel-banana pudding.
Sue Bloch, executive director for the advocacy center, told Sun-Times Media that the cooking competition is this non-profit organization's biggest fundraiser of the year.
