HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU NEED TO COOK FOR?

Please plan to cook for you and a parent for requirement #4; 5 people, which includes yourself, for requirement #5;

and 3-5 people for requirement #6.

COOKING ON TROOP OUTINGS: If you plan to cook on an upcoming troop outing and have it count towards the Cooking merit badge, please remember that you need to complete your menu at least a month before the outing and get it approved by the merit badge counselor before you sign up as Cook for the outing. Please plan accordingly. You can always prepare a menu ahead of time so that it has been approved before you plan to go on an outing.
