Three up-and-coming TV-star chefs are challenging internationally awarded celebrity Chef David Burke - also a finalist of both Top Chef and Iron Chef America - in a cooking competition dinner series “Beat Chef David Burke” at THE GOAT by David Burke.

Don’t miss out! Tickets sales are already on fire! Tickets include the three-course prix-fixe dinner and the competition cooking show for $55++ per person. Photos and autographs with chefs too! You can purchase your tickets online at www.thegoatbydb.com.  

A relaxing, social dinner for ticketholders perhaps; but a heated, yet friendly, competition between New Jersey’s latest celebrity guest chefs and Chef Burke!

 Here’s the lineup of competing chefs and their Instagram handles for you to follow:

Sunday, March10: Lauren Van Liew, Food Network Chopped Champion  @lauren_vanliew

Sunday, March 24: Casey Webb, Cooking Channel, Man v. Food @iamhusky4life on

Sunday April 7: Alexandra Donnadio, Fox, Next Level Chef @cookingwithzandge_s

 The Live Competition begins at 4:30pm sharp.

Witness first-hand the chefs’ creativity as they devise dishes on-the-spot highlighting flavor profiles and presentation of a mystery ingredient.

A three-judge panel of two randomly selected ticket holders from the audience – you might be selected! - and a local dignitary will judge the cooking competition.

The event will start at 4 p.m. with a reception with passed hors d’oeuvres, cash bar, mingling and a brief Q&A. Your three-course dinner starts at 4:30 with table snacks fired up in THE GOAT’s special wood-fired oven, then an appetizer, a main and a dessert will follow while the chef competitions take place for a superbly unique, exciting dinner and a show! We respectfully ask that ticket holders be on time and seated by 4:30.

“I am from New Jersey and love to support the state and chefs who are from here,” Burke said about launching the competition. “My loyal restaurant followers know, I love great food and fun. Come see, taste and experience our friendly competition first hand!”
