🌶️ CrossFit Wooster’s Annual Chili Cook-Off 🍂
📅 Saturday, November 8, 2025
🕓 4:00–6:00 PM
📍 CrossFit Wooster
It’s back—the one time of year we trade barbells for bowls of chili (and maybe a few stretchy pants).
Here’s how it works:
Bring your best chili recipe (bonus points for a fun name—“White Lightning,” “No Rep Chili,” “Grandma’s Secret Weapon”).
Everyone will taste, vote, and crown the 2025 Chili Champion 🏆.
Not cooking chili? Bring a side, dessert, or drinks so we can turn this into a true Friendsgiving feast.
🔥 Previous Champs: Brandon Buxman (2023), Julie Reed (2023), and Jimmy Volcansek (2024). The bar is high. Will 2025 top it?

Event Schedule:
4:00 PM → Chili drop-off & setup
4:30 PM → Tasting opens + we sit down to eat together
5:45 PM → Winner announced (applause required)
6:00 PM → Wrap-up & leftovers
👨‍👩‍👧 Family, kids, and non-chili people are welcome. Yes, even if your idea of chili is the kind from Wendy’s.
Come hungry, bring something to share, and let’s make this the best Chili Cook-Off yet!
