Yes, this is the iconic yearly event during Superbowl week, but now it has taken it’s own identity and “TASTE” with the combination of the NFL draft and amazing chefs, to kick off draft week in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
GENYOUth, welcomed attending guests to the first-ever Taste of the Draft in Green Bay on April 23rd. This philanthropic culinary extravaganza delivered in food, football, and the great vibe to help tackle youth food insecurity in Wisconsin. This noble cause helps drive the spotlight in raising awareness for GENYOUth’s efforts to End Student Hunger.
Hosted by nationally renowned chefs Andrew Zimmern, Mark Bucher and Paul Bartolotta, Taste of the Draft 2025 showcased signature dishes from Wisconsin’s Supper Clubs.
Guests enjoyed the chance to mingle with Green Bay Packers legends along with unexpected moments of excitement and delight. Doing good never tasted so great!
Through national nonprofit GENYOUth, all net proceeds will definitely leave a lasting legacy by providing nutritious meals to Wisconsin children who need them most, helping them to thrive and succeed. Together building a future where no child goes hungry. Student Health and Wellness at the Forefront During NFL Draft Week

The inaugural Taste Of The Draft did not disappoint as the guests who attended this event left the venue with smiles on their faces and all for a great cause.
We had the pleasure to experience the great hospitality, alumni players and exquisite culinary delights made from chefs from the Green Bay Area, therefore some kudos are in store for the variety of the menu for each booth that were positioned to host each and every football fan who had an amazing time, and the 2026 version of the NFL Draft being held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but in February 2026 we hope to see everyone in San Francisco for Superbowl 60 and the amazing Taste Of The NFL.
