2006 PAM FOR GRILLING
 
This contest was billed as the Battle of the PAMazing Grillers. It was hosted in New York and consisted of 19 top grillers from around the country.  Our very own Gwen Beauchamp showed up to represent CCC.  While Gwen was unsuccessful winning the $10,000 grand prize, she reported that it was a wonderful trip with memories to last a lifetime and new friends which she hopes to meet on the kitchen battlefield sometime in the near future.

The following represent a small sample of the pictures she made available to us for posting on our site.  Thanks Gwen. . .
