Over the past four months, a series of intense competitions have seen talented chefs and mixologists vie for top honors. The Grand Finale will be the stage for the presentation of the prestigious Undeniably Dairy Awards, recognizing those who most innovatively featured local dairy in their creations. This focus on farm-to-table culinary arts underscores the versatility and quality of dairy ingredients.

Winners across various categories, including Best Savory Dish and Best Cocktail, will be announced following live tastings, where their imaginative uses of dairy will be critically evaluated. This competitive platform not only elevates the profile of local culinary talent but also directly links their artistry to the foundational work of dairy farmers in North Carolina.

The Dairy Alliance, a non-profit organization, champions this event with funding directly from dairy farm families across the Southeast. Their sponsorship of the Undeniably Dairy Awards is a testament to their commitment to promoting the use of high-quality local dairy and honoring the dedication of the farm families who provide these essential products to consumers and the culinary industry.
