We are proud to feature the Albertson’s Market LCCS World Championship Chuckwagon Cook-off Competition (featured on the Food Network’s All American Festivals and Cowboy Challenge) with prizes totaling $13,000. Competitors are judged on categories of food; meat, potatoes, bread, beans, and dessert as well as an overall food winner. Not only do our wagons compete in cooking, but on the authenticity of their wagons and attire.
