Easy Chipotle Chicken Cornbread Cups: Interactive Demo Tips for Success!

[Becky0216]

I have a show where I am demoing the Chipotle chicken cornbread cups. I know there are not alot of steps in this but I am thinking of finally trying an interactive demo. Do you all think this will be able to work out? There will be 10-11 guests. Also, I was wondering if I shold have her cook the chicken ahead, or demo the DCB for everyone.
The Problem there is I never did boneless breast in the DCB and would be affraid of messing them up.
Any suggestions? I need this to be a great show. It is my only show for the month and I don't have many more on the books. I need to wow these guests because they are PC veterans. TIA

When's your show? Could you test out the chicken breasts in the DCB home first, so you're comfortable with it? 'Cause I think that would be nice to do at the show. Just make sure your host's microwave is big enough for it!!!

I've never made that recipe, so I'm not much help there. Maybe there are steps that more than one person can do??

Good luck with your show!! Get lots of bookings and sales!!

The Show is on Tuesday so I have time to try it. Any suggestions on how long to cook it? Also, anyone else have suggestions on making this interactive?

DCB - definitely demo that!!! You'll get lots of bookings especially when you tell them that stoneware is the host special for November! all you have to remember is 3 minutes per boneless chicken breast - so 9 minutes for 3. I usually do that many and they are perfect everytime. Before cooking, I salt and pepper first and sprinkle on any seasoning I have. You can have the host help when you arrive - or the first few guests to arrive. After microwaving I leave the top on for a couple minutes then let somebody uncover and everybody oohs & ahhs!

As for the cornbread cups - no suggestions, sorry! I had them at our kick-off and they were really good but I haven't made them. I've been doing fajitas at almost every show lately!

Hello there! It sounds like you have a great show planned with the Chipotle chicken cornbread cups. Interactive demos are always a hit and I think it would be a great idea to incorporate it into your show. With 10-11 guests, it will definitely keep everyone engaged and interested.As for the chicken, I would recommend cooking it ahead of time and then demoing the DCB for everyone. This will save time and ensure that the chicken is cooked properly. If you are worried about messing up the boneless breasts in the DCB, you can always practice beforehand or even use a different protein like ground turkey or beef.My suggestion would be to have all the ingredients prepped and ready to go before the show starts. This will make the demo run smoothly and allow you to focus on engaging with your guests and showcasing the product. Also, don't forget to have some extra samples of the Chipotle chicken cornbread cups for your guests to try.I'm sure you will do a fantastic job at your show and wow your PC veterans. Just remember to have fun and be confident in your demo. Best of luck to you!
