Midwest 8-Ball Championships kick off in Sioux City
A chef from the local Marriott taught kids the importance of scoring the meat, and also of learning how to cook at a young age.
'People aren't getting into cooking nearly as early,' and ' chef Eric Divis said. 'A big thing for when I come to these classes is to show them how to do things, but also I want them to start understanding the essential skills of cooking, because not being able to cook going into the real world, going into the relationships, going into the family, learning those skills then is a lot harder then having the ability to learn them now.'
This is the second time this event was held thanks to a grant from the Iowa Beef Industry Council.
