In lieu of helmets, hoses, and axes, Fairfield County’s bravest will instead don aprons, barbecue tongs, and basting brushes when they compete in the Second Annual  Fairway’s Firefighters Food Face-Off, (www.fairwaymarket.com)  a grilling “throw down” that will pit firefighters  from Noroton Heights Fire Department, Darien Fire Department and Stamford Volunteer Fire Department against one another to determine whose barbecue is best at 12 noon on Saturday, June 16, 2012  in the parking lot of the Stamford store location – 699 Canal Street (Rain or Shine). Fairway welcomes the public to support their local firefighters  and enjoy free samples  as well as music and giveaways. Firefighters will compete to cook their tastiest ribs, beef burgers and vegetable skewers. The judges are:  Jodi Helman, blogger and author of Jodi’s kitchen and home), Lou Gorfain of CtBites, Mitchel London, Fairway’s Chef de Cuisine and  Mike McGowan, on air talent for WEBE/WICC. They will determine the first place finisher basing their decisions on taste, originality and the incorporation of a secret ingredient (to be announced at the event). The winning team will not only receive bragging rights but also a $500 gift card  to shop for groceries for their firehouse  and  the opportunity to name the charity of their choice to benefit from a Fairway “Shopping Night”  which the Stamford store will host on their behalf.  All other firehouses will win a $100 gift card to the store.
