Rules & Regulations

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING RULES & REGULATIONS BEFORE REGISTERING FOR THE CASSEROLE PARTY.

  1. NEW THIS YEAR: Entries must be original or “family” recipes. Due to the nature of this year’s competition, pre-published recipes will not be accepted. Yes, if you manipulate a pre-published recipe to make it your own, it will be considered original.
  2. For entry to The Casserole Party, you MUST bring a casserole. “You” can be a group of up to two people. For example, Ruth and John may bring one casserole between the two of them, but if they wish to bring a third or fourth friend, a second casserole must accompany the other two guests. If they would like to bring four friends, they must bring a second AND THIRD casserole and so on. These groups of 1-2 persons will thus far be referred to as “teams.”
  3. Each team must register by Wednesday, October 10.
  4. Your “casserole” must fit the following criteria: An entree consisting of two or more solid ingredients (one is generally a starch of some kind) BAKED in a casserole dish (generally known by the brand name, Pyrex). Cast iron will also be accepted.
  5. Your casserole must be mixed and ready to go when you arrive. You will be allowed to put your casserole in the oven to warm it on a first-come, first-served basis, but no other preparations will be allowed once you arrive. It is best to bring your casserole warm and ready.
  6. You must bring a serving spoon (or utensil of your choice) for serving your casserole.
  7. Doors open promptly at 6 p.m. The oven opens promptly at 6:30 and judging begins promptly at 8. Your casserole must arrive with at least one teammate by 8 p.m. to be considered for a prize.
  8. By registering for The Third Annual Casserole Party you agree that your recipe may be used (with appropriate credit) in Emily’s upcoming casserole cookbook and may also be made available on the Brooklyn Label menu.
  9. NEW THIS YEAR: Because there are a limited number of spots available for The Casserole Party, absolutely, positively do not register if you will not attend. Anyone who registers and fails to attend will be blacklisted from all future Emily Farris/Casserole Party events. End of story.
