Get ready to taste some Spartan flavor! Bold. Savory. Sweet. Spicy. Spartan chefs from across campus will face off in the ultimate signature sauce competition.
Each dining location will offer all competing sauces, allowing guests to sample every creation and cast their vote online for the most irresistible, unforgettable flavor of the season. At the end of the competition, one chef will rise above the rest, be crowned the champion with the most votes, and their winning sauce will earn a place as a permanent featured condiment in our dining locations.
Whatever your taste, the power is in your pour. Try them all and vote for your favorite sauce boss!
