Since its debut in 2008, the Louisiana Seafood Cook-Off (LASCO) has earned a reputation as one of the top professional culinary competitions in the state. This high-stakes, fast-paced, live cooking event brings together talented chefs from across Louisiana, all vying for the prestigious title of King or Queen of Louisiana Seafood. With the spotlight on them, these chefs showcase their creativity, skill, and passion for Louisiana’s world-renowned seafood.
Winning LASCO is more than just a title—it’s a launching pad for culinary success. The champion goes on to represent Louisiana at notable events like the Great American Seafood Cook-Off, gaining exposure on a national stage. Among industry professionals, LASCO is often called a “culinary catapult,” with past winners opening their own restaurants, starring in television shows, and appearing on the covers of major food magazines. For many, it’s the beginning of an exciting new chapter in their culinary careers.
