Brian Duffett knows that practice makes perfect.

His continuous efforts to be the best – along with his spot-on culinary skills – recently won Duffett top honors in the National SkillsUSA culinary competition.

In June, Duffett showcased his skills against 26 other state champions to take home the gold medal and bragging rights as the nation’s top culinary student. He is the only Alabama college student to have ever won the  competition. Even more important to Duffett, he won a $50,000 culinary scholarship to the prestigious Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York.
