[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”177978″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes”][vc_column_text]Miami, FL, Feb. 19, 2024<\/strong> \u2014 Cassidy Bauer<\/strong>, a member of Best Buddies in Massachusetts and Rhode Island<\/strong>, the state branch of Best Buddies International<\/strong>, a nonprofit dedicated to creating opportunities for friendship, employment, leadership development and inclusive living for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), got the cooking experience of a lifetime when she starred in a special holiday episode of \u201cGuy\u2019s Grocery Games\u201d<\/strong> hosted by Best Buddies Global Ambassador Guy Fieri<\/strong> on Food Network<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I first heard I was going to be on the show, it felt like I was in a dream,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cI couldn\u2019t believe it was actually real.\u201d<\/p>\n

While it was Bauer\u2019s first time on television, it wasn\u2019t her first time stealing the show with her cooking or hanging out with Fieri. She had previously met Fieri when she was invited to cook with him at the famous Best Buddies Challenge: Hyannis Port<\/em> clambake.<\/p>\n

Her previous relationship with Fieri made her feel right at home on the show. While Bauer was excited to reunite with Fieri and meet the other celebrity chefs, she was particularly excited about getting her own actor\u2019s trailer.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”177977″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]\u201cMeeting the chefs was a dream,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cAnd having my own trailer was pretty sweet.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the day of filming, Bauer and celebrity chef Damaris Phillips<\/strong> teamed up to compete against two other teams, Best Buddies participant Michael Jaxtimer-Berry<\/strong> and celebrity chef Maneet Chauhan<\/strong> and Best Buddies participant Chris Harrington<\/strong> and celebrity chef Beau MacMillian<\/strong>. Each team cooked a dinner and dessert, and the duo that cooked the best meals, as evaluated by a panel of celebrity judges, would bring home $15,000<\/strong>. One of those judges was Best Buddies Global Ambassador Katie Meade<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As the filming started, Bauer felt the pressure of the competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was nervous and excited,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cRunning around the store [to pick the ingredients] was challenging, but it was a lot of fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bauer and Phillips immediately got to work, cooking up a gingerbread-crusted fried chicken with homemade cranberry sauce and spiced sweet potato for dinner and chocolate peppermint cupcakes for dessert.<\/p>\n

It was then time to present her dishes to the judges.<\/p>\n

\u201cTalking to the judges was a little nerve-wracking,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cDamaris helped me get through it and helped me explain what we cooked.\u201d<\/p>\n

The judges then went to deliberate to determine who would win the prize.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would grade my dish a 10 out of 10,\u201d Bauer said.<\/p>\n

Luckily for her, the judges agreed, as Bauer got to bring home $15,000, which she said would go toward paying for her favorite summer camp. For each of the other two contestants, Fieri donated $5,000<\/strong> to Best Buddies in their name.<\/p>\n

For Bauer and the other contestants, this was the experience of a lifetime, and one that she hopes will inspire her peers in Best Buddies.<\/p>\n

\u201cBe strong and be yourself,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cDreams really do come true.\u201d<\/p>\n
