CookingBites Recipe Challenge Rules (revised July 2024)
  • You must post up the recipe here on CookingBites during the time frame of the challenge. No screenshots of or links to recipes on other sites other than crediting is permitted.
  • The recipe must contain the ingredient specified in the challenge unless the judge has specified an inclusive alternative
  • To include everyone in any challenge, a suitable vegetarian/vegan/allergy free/intolerance free substitution must be permitted if the challenge ingredient is something a participant can not or does not eat, for whatever reason. What is permitted is up to the current challenge judge to decide on.
  • In the event that an ingredient is unavailable regionally, substitutions should be agreed with the judge.
  • The recipe must have the 'recipe' prefix and the 'CookingBites recipe challenge' tag. It should also have the correct normal tags. For example, the recipe below would have the 'chicken' and 'lemons' tags at a minimum.
upload_2017-5-27_10-53-46-png.png

  • The recipe must be linked to in the challenge thread to indicate participation in the current recipe challenge.
  • Cooking the recipe is optional, though it is encouraged.
  • Photographs are optional, but encouraged. They are not, by any means, mandatory.
  • A maximum of 6 entries per member is permitted in each round unless the current challenge judge decides to remove the limit at the start of the challenge.
  • (NEW) A judge may revise the limit on the number of entries a member may submit, by contacting a moderator (via the report button (preferred), PM or user mentions (@moderator's name)) within 48hrs of the start of the challenge, clearly stating their wish to increase the maximum number of entries (specifying the new maximum) a member may make.
  • If the judge has not altered the limit, recipe modifications can be made before the deadline by deleting the relevant submission post and removing the challenge tag, but members are asked to keep this to a minimum (maximum of 3).
  • If the judge has not altered the limit, and a member has submitted more than 6 recipes and the deadline for the current challenge has passed before the issue is resolved, only the first 6 recipies will count.
  • If the judge has not altered the limit, members deliberately submitting more than 6 recipes will be excluded from the current challenge after a reminder. Members routinely submitting more than 6 recipes will be excluded from all future challenges.
  • In the interest of fairness, the current challenge judge must remove any members from their ignore list for the duration of the competition (or remember to view ignored content on that thread). The first option is the preferred option.
  • The judge's (or site's owner if the judge is not around at the end of the challenge) decision is final and the new winner will select the next ingredient and the time frame...
  • And finally, as always, in the event of any dispute the site owner has the final say.
