This week, it”s The Cigar Authority Meatball Live! If you’re a first-timer, brace yourself for the 6th annual Meatball Cookoff, where five talented contestants create 50 mouthwatering meatballs each.
Picture this: 50 attendees savoring all five creations without a clue about who crafted each meatball. It’s a thrilling blind taste test, and only those who purchased tickets get to cast their votes for their favorite meatball. The contestant with the most votes not only clinches the coveted trophy but also earns the ultimate bragging rights. Simple, right? Or is it?
