Seattle Met's 1st Annual Cowabunga 3 day Beef-fest
A Whole New Meaning to "Until the Cows Come Home"
Photos from Seattle Met's udderly delicious weekend of events, chef competitions, day tastings, and demos held on Amazon's campus in South Lake Union
What a whirlwind! On November 10 - 12th, Seattle Met, in partnership with Amazon, Visit Seattle, Washington State Beef Farmers & Ranchers, Washington State Wines, and the Dairy Farmers of Washington, brought together 145 chefs, distillers, winemakers, brewers, and regional purveryors for a weekend of celebrating America's favorite livestock.
Featuring 3 days of day tastings, demos, and chef competitions in Cowabunga's Big Tent & Little Calf Tent, plus Friday night's Burger Bash, Saturday's steak-house inspired Seared event, and a family-friendly Sunday Brunch, 7,500+ guests from across the Pacific Northwest ate, drank and learned how to rope a cow! With live tunes from the June Bugs, Super-Krewe, and the Speakeasy Jazz Cats, stand-up from some of Seattle's top comedians, a late-night mindblowing burlesque show presented by House of Gorjess, and so much more, it was a weekend not to be missed!
A benefit for Seattle Theatre Group, Cowabunga raised $9,545 toward STG's annual educational programs and camps dedicated to bringing the arts to youth across the city.
