COOKS WITH COLLARS

Celebrating parishes and serving communities in the Diocese of Allentown

September 1, 2026– September 30, 2026

Welcome to Cooks with Collars 2026! We are kicking off our sixth year of priests donning aprons & getting into the kitchen for the annual online cooking competition.

This year, to tie in with the celebration of the 65th Anniversary of the Diocese of Allentown, we are adding a new category, the Commemorative 65th Anniversary Award. This award will go to the Cook of the parish or college ministry who has the highest count of $65 donations from an individual parish or college.

Your priests have worked hard preparing their recipes, recording the videos, and entering this competition. Let's reward them by voting for your favorite chef.

This is one election where VOTING EARLY & VOTING OFTEN is accepted and encouraged!

Competitors are vying this year for new awards:

Top Chef

Most Popular Chef

Commemorative 65th Anniversary Award

Top Chef by Deanery

Top Chef by College

Remember, your voting dollars go directly to the parish or college ministry of the Cook that earns your votes. Every dollar counts as one vote! (Minimum donation is $10...10 votes.)

Voting closes at the stroke of midnight on September 30, 2026.

For mail-in and offline votes,

please drop your donations in the Sunday collection at your parish.
