The Virginia Pork Council, the Iowa Pork Producers Association, the North Carolina Pork Council, and other sponsors have announced the five finalists for the Pork Chop Challenge. After weeks of voting, the five finalists include four restaurants from Washington, D.C., and one from Arlington, Virginia. The five establishments will now advance to the final judging round, where culinary professionals and pork producers will evaluate their dishes. Judging will take place on July 11-12.
The winning restaurant will receive a grand prize of $100,000, and an additional $100,000 worth of pork products will be donated to the Capital Area Food Bank, highlighting the competition’s commitment to fighting hunger. “We are immensely proud of all the participating chefs and restaurants,” says Roy Lee Lindsey of the Virginia Pork Council.
