At the 2019 World Food Championships (WFC), The Jelly Queens produced a unique ancillary competition called Biscuits and Jampionship, challenging competitors to make an original flavor of jelly. Now, THE Jelly Queen herself, Donna Collins, is bringing back this sweet gig with some prize money.

Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits are a specialty in Texas. Round 1 of this contest challenges chefs and home cooks around the country to create their very own interpretation of this sweet and savory treat and submit it via email. Along with emailing the biscuit recipe, each contestant must mail two jars of an original jam recipe to The Jelly Queens headquarters (4318 West Lovers Lane, Dallas, TX) to be judged.

But wait… there is a twist. The recipes must include the following ingredients:

Biscuit – Jovial Flour or King Arthur Flour and Challenge Butter

Fried Chicken – Jelly Queen Spices

Honey Butter – Bonton Farms Honey

Jam – Pomona’s Universal Pectin and shipped in your choice of Fillmore Container Jars

The top 20 winners will be announced on June 30th and will move on to the next round.

In round two, similar to round 1, contestants will be required to submit an original pickle recipe via email by August 17th. In addition, two jars of the pickles should be sent to The Jelly Queens address in Fillmore Container Jars. The top ten recipes will be announced on September 2nd and will move on to compete in the final round at Fair Park in Dallas.
