2017 Land Rover Muddy Chef Challenge

THE LAND ROVER MUDDY CHEF CHALLENGE 2017

JULY 2017, MANCHESTER VERMONT

The Land Rover Muddy Chef Challenge was established in 2008. 2017 marks the third year that Drive The Globe has participated in this "Top Gear meets Top Chef" event. The weekend is a great mix of gourmet vehicle based cooking challenges and off roading. It is also the perfect opportunity to catch up with old Land Rover friends and meet new ones.  The 2017 edition took place in Manchester Vermont and included all of the amenities the local area has to offer.  Nightlife at the camp site included the fantastic cocktail camper from 13th Street Cocktails & Stony Creek Beer.  This year Drive The Globe was honored with winning First Place in the Muddy Chef Challenge Entree category & second place in the Dessert category. A special thanks to Chris from Rovertek & Carl from Xtreme Mobile Adventures for the quick field tune up on our series IIA truck- it made for a much better drive home. Also thanks to our own Carrie in the Drive The Globe support truck for bringing the jerry can of fuel after I ran out of gas 15 miles from the event site.
