This rendition of the Prepper Cook-Off Challenge wrapped up a couple days ago and it's time to hand out the rewards. This was the first time there were less qualified entries than prizes, which was a little disappointing. I suspect the lack of interest is due to the downtrend in the price of STEEM. Still, I enjoyed all the entries and definitely learned a few things!
Results
Due to the low number of entries, and difficulty judging, I removed a couple of prize categories. I did not, however, lower the total prize package. Here is the new prize breakdown; note that there was a tie for 3rd place.
Prizes
- 1st Prize - 10 STEEM + 15 SBI
- 2nd Prize - 7 STEEM + 10 SBI
- 3rd Prize #1 - 5 STEEM + 5 SBI
- 3rd Prize #2 - 5 STEEM + 5 SBI
- Sasquatch Award - 4 STEEM + 4 SBI
First Place
@el-nailul - Survival: Bamboo Cooking Pot
Second Place
@porters - Harvesting From the Wilds of Northern Saskatchewan - Part 2 - Entry to a Prepper Cook Off Challenge
Third Place
@girthbomb - Learning from Failure, Foraging a new skill
@saun - chocolate Groundnut recipe foraging once again!
Honorable Mention
While not an actual entry this interesting story, filled with foraging tips, was inspired by the challenge. I figured it was worthy of an honorable mention.
@thedarkhorse - Surviving in the Smoky Mountains
Sasquatch Award
And the winner is... @el-nailul
The award you have all been waiting for is for the most bad ass forager. I think the winner might even give Bear Grylls a run for his money. He chose to cook wild Taro root, which is poisonous on the outside edges, in bamboo over a fire. That is some real bushcraft if I ever seen any.

Conclusion and Feedback
Congratulations to everyone who participated! I hope you all had fun and are eager to return for future Prepper Cook-Off Challenges. Also, feel free to leave any suggestions you might have below. I can't guarantee I'll implement everything but I will take everything into consideration.
A shame that the steemprice has dropped and not as much take up. I love this challenge and as you know, I would have defo gone in it if it was foraging season. Congrats to the winner, checking out your post in a sec. xx

Don't worry there will be more and I am sure the price of STEEM will be back up at some point.

Thanks for participating! I will make sure to tag you when the next challenge is out. It may be awhile though. Our focus will be more on our house build over the next couple of months so I am not sure if I will have the time to fit a challenge in during that time period.

That is OK. We have been a little frazzled with everything lately. As you can see I am answering comments 8 days after they were written!
