Applications Are Open!

Beef + Lamb New Zealand are now taking applications from chefs around the country who have their eye on the coveted role of being one of the next Beef + Lamb Ambassadors.

This will be the 26th year of Beef + Lamb Ambassador Chefs and with the ongoing COVID-19 crisis hitting the hospitality industry hard, Beef + Lamb NZ want to encourage chefs to look to the future and give them something to aspire to.

Just as our farmers grow the best beef and lamb in the world, so too our chefs know exactly how to showcase it on their menus to the highest standard.  After 26 years of acknowledging some of the best chefs in the industry it is important now more than ever to showcase what Kiwi chefs are doing and give them the opportunity to elevate their careers.

To be eligible to apply, chefs must submit both a beef and a lamb main course dish. With some restaurants still closed due to COVID-19 restrictions the dishes don't have to necessarily be on your menu at the moment. They can be something from a past menu, or something new created at home during lockdown.

Beef + Lamb NZ are looking for dishes which are visually stunning, hero the beef or lamb, and have a combination of taste and texture that will tantalise the taste buds!  Your application and dishes need to be submitted before 10 December 2021

Everything you need to know about applying for and becoming one of the next Beef + Lamb Ambassador Chefs is here.
