Two teams of 4-H members will represent Tennessee 4-H at the 2021 Great American Seafood Cook-off in Louisiana in August. The Cook-Off will bring together 4-H teams consisting of 2-4 members to show off their cooking skills.

The recipe must include USA domestic seafood, and it has to be prepared for five identical plated serving of their entrée. Teams have 60 minutes to prepare the dish and must provide a five minute maximum oral presentation. Recipes prepared are only allowed to be 750 calories or less per serving.
