For sure, this competition will have you howlin’ for another slice.
The Arizona Greyhound Rescue is teaming up with Trident Grill III and some of Tucson’s most talented bakers for the “Pie for Paws” baking contest from 1 – 5 p.m. on Sunday, November 18.
This is the first time the Arizona Greyhound Rescue has thrown a bake-off like this, and everyone that’s already involved is ready to take off with the grand prize.
The winning baker will win a KitchenAid Stand Mixer, a $100 cash prize, and a trophy (for bragging rights, of course). The runner-up won’t go home empty-handed either, earning a $50 Trident Grill gift card.
