CLERFIELD- Fresh off the heat of the MasterChef Duos kitchen, local culinary standout Spencer Folmar and his wife McKenna are bringing their star power—and signature flavor—to this year’s Men Who Cook charity event, where food meets philanthropy for a night of unforgettable bites and big-hearted giving.
Over 20 area leaders and local men who love to cook will join the Folmar Duo to showcase their culinary creations to benefit local Veteran’s projects.
“The Officers of the Post and Auxiliary are excited to host the event again this year! Last year was the first time the Post hosted this event and we were pleasantly surprised with the amount of people who came out to support our talented local chefs. They brought out some excellent dishes and the blended aroma of every item was amazing, I don’t know how anyone was able to choose a favorite. Adding Spencer and McKenna to this year’s event is sure to help bring in more people to recognize their and our local chef’s talents and raise funds for a worthy cause.” said Post Commander, Greg Ireland.
The event kicks off at 6 p.m. with all the men offering generous portions of their culinary specialties. The audience votes for their favorite dishes by providing tips in a jar located at each station. The cooks who raise the most funds win the coveted “Golden Chef” awards. This year’s event will feature a “pro” category, an “at home chef” category, team category and junior division.
Attendees to last year’s event did not go home hungry as they feasted on menu items such as beef brisket, asiago chicken, BBQ ribs, shrimp tacos, beef wellington, stuffed chicken breasts, lobster mac n’ cheese, lasagna, soups, casseroles, and award- winning desserts. The 2025 food line-up will be announced pre-event.
Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at the Clearfield VFW, The After Dark or online here. All ticket holders will also be eligible to win $500 in door prizes.
Reserve your tickets today and join us for a fun-filled culinary evening.
The event is sponsored by Visit Clearfield County, GANT News, Novey Recycling, The After Dark and Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub.
