The third annual “Men Who Cook” event- co-sponsored by WISR 680 AM and Armstrong- was another success.
A record number of guests enjoyed a variety of entrees, soups and desserts cooked by men from the Butler community on Saturday.
Guests then had an opportunity to vote for the food they enjoyed the most, with participants receiving special recognition in several categories. Jimmy Chiprean repeated as the winner of the Golden Fork, and Gary Schneider and Mike Whitmire from Schneider’s One Hour were the winners of the Chef of Tips / “Money Talks” Fork. The Golden Fork was based on the highest number of votes, while the “Money Talks” Fork was awarded for earning the most tips at the event.
Butler Radio’s Ryan Saeler was the winner of the Honorary Silver Spoon, which went to the participant with the largest single donation. Nick and Greg Krelow from The Beacon Hotel won Best Side, and Mike Panza won Best Dessert.
Record-breaking proceeds from Saturday’s event benefited the St. Vincent de Paul food bank.
