It’s apparently becoming a new Searcy, Arkansas tradition!
City officials in Searcy have confirmed that the “Chocolate Gravy Cook-Off” is returning to Downtown Searcy next year after they “sold out of chocolate gravy tickets” in May. They’re bringing it back again where attendees can get free chocolate biscuits and gravy!
Chocolate Gravy Event Returning To Searcy After Selling Out
Main Street Searcy Executive Director Amy Burton confirmed at a city council meeting that they were bringing back the event after it sold out and brought a whopping 500 people to try the delicious food.
Last May organizers held an event called The World Championship Chocolate Gravy Cookoff. The event involves multiple cooks bringing their chocolate gravy downtown and letting the public eat it for free.
The public gets a chance to vote on the most delicious gravy! The winner gets a prize.
So many people got biscuits and gravy in May that all the cooks ran out of biscuits. Some attendees resorted to buying sourdough bread at the Farmer’s Market to use as make-shift biscuits.
