This is it..... The one you all have been waiting for. The 8th Annual Chili Cook Off!! Cold Weather, Cold Beer and Hot Chili .... ALL FOR CHARITY!!
So come on down, drink some beer and enjoy a bunch of different chili's and support our friends at Paradise Oaks Youth Services.
Super fun and only $10.00 per person or if you are under 10 then it's only $5.00. If you plan on cooking, you're allowed (1) assistant. Any other members of your team will need to pay the $10.00 admission.
Fun day in February, all the while supporting one of our favorite charities. Movement is donating $1.00 from every beer sold.
If you are interested in cooking please DM Steve Hayer.
The ONE RULE FOR THE CHILI CHEF'S.... You must feature a Movement beer in your chili. If you are able to get down there before the event, they will be sure to get you up to 1 crowler of beer for your chili. Otherwise you can add the beer the day of the event.
************Items to bring...... Table, Power strip and extension cord if you are cooking with electricity. If you’re cooking with propane, you’ll need to bring a pop up canopy, just in case it’s raining outside. Now onto the chili (two large crock pots worth). We normally have approx 300 people attend the event.****************
Set up for chili chefs is 12:00-1:30
Blind tasting for judges is 1:30
General admittance is 2:30-5:30
There will be a 50/50 raffle at 5pm and you must be present to win.
We will provide the tasting cups and spoons for the attendees. We will have some tables but please bring one if you can.
****** Please if you are interested in cooking for the event let me know if you are go or a possible chef.******* Last year I had some no shows on the day of the event.
There will be prizes .... "Bragging Rights" stickers, glasses and some other cool stuff for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place!
Please use UBER, LYFT, DD's , Taxi's anyway to get home safely. We always encourage safe trips home.
See you at the event. Any questions please contact me.
One new rule for this year’s cook-off…..when the judges are tasting please do not add any additional toppings to your chili, we just want them to taste your chili straight up. Cheers and looking forward to seeing everyone!
