Outdoor masterchef is an activity that furthers team building processes in a group, fosters creative expression through food and allows to practice outdoor skills connected to food preparation. In the beginning of the activity participants are divided into small groups and receive a set of ingredients that they can use in cooking dinner for everyone. They are then equipped with cooking gear and a task to create two dishes that will represent their group. The groups then cook in the outdoor setting and create a common buffet table that serves as a community dinner for the evening.
This method is about getting creative with food as a means of self-expression, collaboration in teams and caring for one another.
