The weather couldn't have been any better for the grilling competition. Macy's put on a great event that included a County Fair themed fairway with fun and games for the entire family. The main event was the Grilling Guru Competition. The event started at 1:00pm and it was hosted by Seth Wayne of KOMO 4 TV.

The second sample Tom Douglas prepared for the audience was a beautifully decorated slice of salmon with a slice of lemon. Seriously some of the best salmon I have tasted!
Next was the taste test of each contestants grilled creations. Seth Wayne helped Chef Tom Douglas sample some of Jack's Beef Short Ribs.
