The Smoke ‘N’ CEO in Grand Junction was among six food trucks from across Colorado selected to compete in the Governor’s Plate competition set for Aug. 29 at the Colorado State Fair in Pueblo.
Competitors must be members of the Colorado Proud program and use locally grown, raised and processed foods and agricultural products. Each truck will prepare and serve 500 sample-sized portions of their signature dishes.
Smoke ‘N’ CEO will serve a green chili slider smash burger made with green chilies from Pueblo and beef from a Grand Junction ranch where cattle are fed with spent grain from a local brewery.
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis will award the Governor’s Plate to the winning truck. Attendees will vote on the People’s Choice Award. For tickets or more information, log on to the website at https://coloradostatefair.com/governors-plate.
