Scottie Scheffler’s Masters Champions dinner menu officially revealed

The Players Championship is in the rearview mirror which means golf’s biggest spectacle is only a few exits away. Soon enough, it will be time for The Masters. With drives down Magnolia Lane fast approaching, that means everyone involved has to get proper accommodations ready. Tradition dictates that this process includes getting set for the annual Champions Dinner. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who won at Augusta National for a second time last year, has officially set the menu for this year’s dinner, and it is incredible. X/The Masters Scheffler rolled out an appetizer group that includes cheeseburger sliders, served ‘Scottie-style.’ “It’s as simple as cheeseburgers are my favorite food. I don’t eat them now as often as I did when I was a kid. I’ve got to watch a little bit more what I eat now,” Scheffler said Wednesday. “But ‘Scottie style,’ I always put the fries on my burger, and that’s what ‘Scottie style’ is. It’s fries on the patty. It’s usually thin patties. So my favorite burger place here in town, has thin patties with cheese in between each patty. And I’ll find some of the melted cheese, throw the fries in there, ketchup. It’s pretty great.” Other appetizers include firecracker shrimp, which, along with the ‘Scottie-style’ sliders, were a part of his 2023 menu. But new this year are ‘Papa Scheff’s Meatball and Ravioloi bites,’ which is somewhat ironic considering what happened to the World No. 1 on Christmas. “It’s a little bit more of the same. It’s my favorite foods, haven’t quite changed too much but there’s a little bit, I would say, more kind of nostalgic stuff. My dad’s meatballs made the menu. I think there’s a meatball and ravioli type of dish that was always my favorite thing growing up,” Scheffler said. “My dad, his best meal was always meatballs. So I think that’s going to be one of the appetizers. Then, for the soup, my coach makes the best chili, Randy does. So I think they are trying to use his recipe for the chili inspiration. So that’s really fun, those two things, and then I think we’re doing ribeye again, and some redfish and tequila and bourbon this time. It should be a fun night, fun meal, and very excited about being able to host a Champion’s Dinner again and very excited to see what how it’s prepared and what the chefs at Augusta pull off this year. I’m really looking forward to it.” This is the second time Scheffler has had the honor of establishing the menu for one of the most prestigious dinners that human beings can be a part of. After winning in 2022, he set the menu for the 2023 edition as well. Back then, he also served ‘Scottie-style’ cheeseburger sliders and firecracker shrimp as part of the appetizers. The main course was a choice between the blackened redfish or a Texas Ribeye as opposed to a wood-fired cowboy one. The dessert was the exact same. He is a man of consistency.
