26th. ANNUAL WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP
CRAWFISH ETOUFFEE COOK-OFF RESULTS

SUNDAY MARCH 27, 2011

Northwest Community Center Pavilion
in Eunice Louisiana

Eunice, Louisiana

        The City of Eunice, Louisiana’s Prairie Cajun Capital, is in the heart of the top crawfish producing area in the United States.  Blessed with this natural resource, the World Championship Crawfish Etouffee Cook-Off was started in 1986 to showcase our crawfish industry and local chefs.

        Held this year on March 27, 2011 at the Northwest Pavilion, the World Championship Crawfish Etouffee Cook-off attracted locals and visitors who appreciate good cookin’! This year was no exception. The etouffee was great.

        Teams competed to see who could cook the best crawfish etouffee (smothered crawfish) and the results are in.  Celebrity and professional judges proclaimed winners in three categories; Amateur, Professional and Club/Organization.  Teams also vied for the Best Decorated booth and the entries for this category get more creative every year as was the same this year.  Once the judges had their samples from the booths, the public was able to buy the crawfish etouffee directly from the participants.  Some participants also cooked and sold other food items in addition to their crawfish etouffee.

        Beginning at 10 AM, bands performed for the listening and dancing pleasure of visitors until 4 PM.  Bands that played this year were Briggs Brown & the Bayou Cajuns and Paul Daigle & Cajun Gold. Winners were announced from the music stage at 2:00 PM. All the winners are listed below.
