(firmenpresse) - LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/31/11 -- In the news release, "KFC and the SoCal KFC Colonel in Search of the Southland's Best Cook," issued Tuesday, August 30, 2011 by KFC Southern California, we are advised by the company that the name of the competition has been changed to "Southern California KFC Cooks Challenge." Complete corrected text follows.
LOS ANGELES, CA -- August 31, 2011 -- KFC Southern California () is putting its best to the test in a KFC Cooks Challenge to determine the top chicken preparers in the Southland.
Coming on the heels of the KFC SoCal Colonel's 120th birthday tour, in which the KFC Colonel checked in on Southern California cooks to ensure the Original Recipe® chicken was being prepared properly, the never-satisfied Colonel is testing his best cooks in a Southern California KFC Cooks Challenge. Through mid-October, KFC SoCal and the Colonel will host five regional chicken cook-offs that culminate in a competition final October 11 in Westminster.
Participants will be competing for a cash prize of $500 and the top honor of being designated Southern California's best KFC Cook, a coveted title in the nation's chicken capital with more than 700 competing chicken restaurants. Competing cooks will be judged on the preparation of three KFC staples: Original Recipe®, Kentucky Grilled Chicken®, and the Colonel's Extra Crispy™ Strips. Judges will evaluate the three final products on the basis of uniformity and overall appearance.
"KFC makes America's best fried chicken, so naturally we wanted to seek out and reward the best cooks that deliver on Colonel Sanders' promise and high expectations with a fun -- but very real -- competition," said Shahid Chaudhry, vice president of the SoCal KFC Advertising Association.
Kicking off Wednesday, Aug. 31 in Corona, the regionals stop in Santa Ana, Escondido and Los Angeles before concluding at the finals at a KFC restaurant in Westminster. Awards will be handed out in a ceremony October 12 at the Taco Bell corporate headquarters in Irvine, Calif. Taco Bell is a sister brand to KFC under the Yum! Brands, Inc., umbrella.
