New York – Celebrity Chef, Jeff Mauro challenged 300 Sandwiches’ Stephanie Smith to a Sandwar to claim the title of sandwich king/queen. After what started as a friendly banter through social media, the two brought the #Sandwar to the Hamptons at Red Stixs to benefit American Cancer Society. When discussing the charity choice, Jeff Mauro said “I am sure everyone in this room has been touched by cancer in one way of another, and this is why we chose this cause.”
Judges crowned Jeff Mauro, naming him the SANDWICH KING of the Hamptons! Both walked away winners, with engraved Don Julio 1942 bottles.
Both known for their delicious sandwiches, judges Geoffrey Zakarian, Jill Martin, Marc Murphy and David Schulman were split on who deserved the crown. Mauro made a Mortadella & Fig Melt and Smith, with Fiancé Eric Schulte prepared a version of sandwich #257, the Fishkiller Fish Cutter. Guests enjoyed the chefs’ creations with curated cocktails from Don Julio. As well, AriZona Beverages serve their signature beverages, while Cuca Fresca kept guests cool with their passion potion.
