Curtis will travel to the winner’s home, where together they will prepare a meal for five friends. Imagine how popular you’ll be.
Just think of the possibilities…Bridal shower? Bachlorette Party? Moms Night Out? Be the envy of all your gal pals.
FYI- This take-home Curtis Stone contest is no longer valid as the deadline came and went. There’s a new contest where you can go to NYC and cook with Curtis Stone. Check it out here.
My husband and I really enjoy watching his show. I can’t tell you how thrilled we would be if we won this contest!!!! I mean we live in Prattville Alabama, so what are the chances that Curtis would be in this area, anyway?
I have always heard the phrase,â€The Way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.†As a single woman over 6′ tall living on the Island of Maui, it’s hard enough to find a mate. Add to the mix, that I never learned how to cook despite the fact that my mother was a gourmet cook and educator. I would be so excited to have Curtis come to the Island of Maui to teach me and my single friends the art of cooking. After teaching us the skills to catch our men, maybe he can catch some surf!
I am a single Mom with an 11 year old autistic son. My son is a very picky eater. I love Curtis and think he is so creative in his cooking. Winning an evening of him cooking for myself and my son would be a dream come true. We live in Delaware, and nothing exciting ever happens here. This would be so amazing to win this.
Iam an artist and writer, and my husband and i love ethnic food.
this past thanksgiving we had african food and it was beautiful.
I would love to have Mr. Stone come and create a unique African meal. We live in a suburb of Seattle Washington, Issaquah.
I would like to say it took alot of cheek to start the take home chef idea. It must have been a bit scary and awkward for him at first. Kudos! I would love to win this contest and experience cooking with a true artist.
I am a full-time mom of 2 part-time night shift nurse. We live in a historical small town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland-90 minutes from our nation’s capital nestled on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. Blue crab season is right around the corner and we would LOVE for Curtis to come enjoy some local cuisine. Cooking at our house is always festive as we try to eat mostly produce from our local farms and the freshest catch from our local watermen. I am a long-time, HUGE fan of Curtis and would LOVE for him to share in our area’s seasonal festivities. Please Come!!
Curtis ~ You gotta come to Santa Cruz, CA and cook for us. My wife loves your show! Then we can go for a surf!

My wife always tells me if I pre-decease her she will never have a good meal again. So, I need Curtis Stone to visit and assure her that she can cook; no matter what her daughters say. I have always enjoyed cooking and it helped me win my step-daughters hearts. They always mention my stuffed cornish game hens and my special desserts. Please consider Sun City Center, Fl. as a destination for a great dining experience for a family that loves to eat, have fun with food and enjoys trying new recipes. My wife, daughters and grandchildren are the loves of my life. They are always open to any new food experience. Please consider them in your choice of contest winners. I have always worked in the food industry: food service,catering,purchasing,retail grocery,and a want to be chef that never took the plunge. thanks, stan squires
I HAVE TO SAY I LOVE CURTIS STONE HE IS SO SAUCY HOT AND BOY IF I COULD GET MY HANDS ON HIM THE THINGS I WOULD DO.

It would be fun to have Curtis to come and cook for me,even though I took a cooking cours myself years ago,but wouldn’t mind still having some tips from the chef himself.It would be any occation because I really like to cook myself,when I invite people over I always do something different.I would like to suprise people I’d get so excited.I just hope to have that oppertunity some day.

Hi Curtis, I know that your show is mostly filmed on the West Coast…How about coming to Chatham, New Jersey? I would love to surprise my mom with a wonderful meal. She is a wonderful woman who I look up to everyday. My mom has been through so much in the past three years that I want to do something special for her. I want her to know that see means the world to my brother and I. We love watching your show when we get the chance…I have tried some of your wonderful receipts. Hoping to learn some tricks from an incredible Chef. Best wishes and hope to see you in New Jersey!!
I LOVE U!! My dream would be for you to help me prepare a wonderful meal for my 1st anniversary (Aug.11, 2008) for my husband, Christian, who’s also use to be a chef in Vermont. He’s French and an amazing chef. I, however, cook like a mid-western trailer park housewife. We live in Denver, Colorado and have no children. We are both busy professionals and have a Bull Mastiff puppy. If you would like for me to send video footage I would be more than happy too. This would be the BEST surprise ever!! Pick me, pick me, pick me!!!!!!!
Hi Curtis,
I have been trying to find a way to contact you through TLC - Take Home Chef for a long time now but could only find this website. I am writing because I watch your Take Home Chef show every day from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. on TLC. It is such a fabulous show and you cook such fantastic things. MI absolutely love to cook….my husband calls me Rachel Ray (ha, ha). He actually teases me because I even watch the repeats of your Take Home Chef show which I have already seen…but that doesn’t matter…it is just so much fun to watch. I live in New Hampshire which is a wonderful state. We live 45 minutes from the beaches, Boston, Mass. and the mountains. You get a little bit of everthing here. I know you really only frequent supermarkets in California and even Seattle but I would love for you to come here to New Hampshire and be able to experiment something different. I am actually throwing a small quaint surprise 50th for my husband in July with two of our favorite “couple” friends we get together with all of the time and travel with. I am 35 years old and my husband and I have been together for 11 years, married 7 (on July 7th). I am looking to do something fun and easy going out in our back yard by our pool area. I am looking into different options of a personal chef but would be so honored if you would be able to come and spend the day with us by the pool and we could make something fun and sassy with a few cocktails. When watching your show…you are a man after my own heart..having a glass of wine (or two) while cooking…how much fun. We are easy going fun loving and just like to chill out and have a good time. If you would consider coming to New Hampshire and joining us for this surprise and fun occassion I would be so honored. You would not regret it and I can promise you would have a great time. And, while you are here you can experience the beauty of New Hampshire….you won’t be disappointed. I do thank you for your time and hope that you will contact me and consider joining us this summer…we would love to have you and I know you would have a fabulous time….No pressures….no worries…just great friends, great food and great cocktails with some great sunshine. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best Wishes from New Hampshire….
Jen

Hi Curtis,
I have been trying to find a way to contact you for a long time and this is the only way I have found. I am 25 and my husband is 27. My husband and I watch your show everyday and are amazed at the meals you make. I would love to reward my husband with an amazing meal after all he has done for me. About a little over a year ago, I was diagnosed with cancer. It was a huge shock to all of us especially since it was about 8 months before our wedding. I was freaking out, becuase its cancer, not knowing about my future, if we would be able to continue with our wedding or what, and my husband was very supportive. I did not want to cancel my wedding at all, and decided to turn a bad situation into a good one and keep the wedding date of April 14, 2007. They told me that I would have to start Chemo treatments, and I probably would not have hair for my wedding, and everyone was soooo supportive and said they would all shave their head if my hair was gone. That was the most thoughtful thing anyone could say. About 4 months after I was diagnosed, and 4 months before my wedding, MANY doctors visits, many tests, medications, quitting my job, etc later, my parents could not except the fact that I had cancer. Somehow, they got me an appointment with NIH ( National Institute of Health). I had many tests done again, and 3 days before I was supposed to start my first chemo treatments, they proved to me that I never had it and they had made a mistake. The whole thing was very stressful, sad, and eye opening. We ended up getting married and had the best day of my life, and now everyday I take as my last. My husband and parents were with me through everything and I know how scared everyone was. I would love to reward my parents and my husband with an amazing meal for everything they had done. If it wasnt for my parents I would have gone through the treatments and had no clue I never needed it. I know cooking a meal for them could not give them everything they have given me, but it could certainly be a start. PLEASE PLEASE let me know if their is ANY way this wish of mine could possibly come true. I live in Salisbury, MD its about 25 minutes from the beaches of the eastern shore. PLEASE let me know if this can happen……Thank you for your time!!!!!,
Kim St. Clair
I am writing in for my 7 year old son. He loves your show. When he comes home from school he does his homework and watches Take Home Chef. Your show is his favorite show. We live on a produce farm in Ohio and Landon always said he was goign to be a farmer like his dad, but now he wants to farm and be a chef. He says he will grow the produce we do now( strawberries, raspberries, sweet corn, tomatoes, melons, peppers, blackberries, squash, pumpkins,etc.) and use it in his resturant. How cool is that. Landon loves to hlep in the kitchen. He would be in awe of he was picked to have Curtis come and teach him a few things. This would be a dream come true for him. I hope you will take us into consideration. Thanks for having a show that I can let my kids watch.
Thanks!

My best friend ADORES you!!!!! If she ever got to meet you then… WOW!!!That would be SOOOOO great!!! I really wish that she could win this contest! She gets mad if she has to miss your show!!! If she got to meet you or even if she saw you from a distance, then she would definitly pass out right then and there!! That is how much she loves you… I have a special request… Well, if my BFF doesn’t win this contest, then could you get your little agents to um…. well, could they send an autographed picture or something like that?! THAT WOULD BE REALLY FABULOUS!!!! Well, I will let you go…
God Bless You!!!

Hey curtis!! After school every day, i come home to watch your show. I am writing this letter to you because my step mother loves to cook and it would be a great surprise if you could cook with her! Especially since you are her favorite chef! Thanks so much for your time!
~jonnie~
Curtis,
I watch your show all the time… and i love it. My husband and sit down and watch your show and he tells me all the time i should learn to cook like you.
I would love for you to come and cook with me but i doubt that would happen. My husband is in the army stationed in alaska. We are a long ways from home (Florida), and there would be nothing better then to cook him a special meal. He got back from iraq in november and will soon be going back. I have so many fears especially since last time he was hit by an IED and since his buddies are all leaving and going to places that dont deploy.
I know Alaska is far and not somewhere you would want to go… but i ask an extreme favor. Come and cook with me here and help me in press my husband before he returns to iraq for another tour of duty!!
Thanks for your time and i love your show …. I try to take notes on recipes but i am not a chef… COME HELP AN ARMY WIFE PLEASE!
