The AHA Iron Chef Competition provides an opportunity for chefs to display their amazing culinary techniques and skills, with the opportunity to earn bragging rights and build their reputations as top talent in the state. The competition is open to eight eligible chefs from restaurants, country clubs or catering businesses that are members of the Arkansas Hospitality Association. As part of the Iron Chef challenge, contestants must use a "mystery protein" announced at the competition that truly showcases the contestants creativity.
This is the line up. Simply the Best Chef Jason Godwin along with Sous Chef Joel Carr competed in Heat 3.
The mystery protein was Top Sirloin. Here is Joel deciding how to break down the meat and which part to use.
