CHILI COOK OFF

The Chili Cook Off is an exciting event that promises fun and food for the entire family. Come and meet your neighbors for a delightful evening of sampling some of the most delectable chili in town. Participants will be preparing their dishes on-site, with patrons serving as judges.

Local chefs, both professional and amateur, will be competing for your vote in three distinct categories: Best Professional Chili, Best Amateur Chili, and Best Team Spirit. Tickets are priced at $10 per person, and all are welcome to attend.

Bi Coastal Media will be on site providing music to keep the event rocking. Indoor seating will be available, feel free to bring your lawn chairs if you plan to sit outside in the park.

This year, in addition to the chili tasting, the students from Arcata High FFA will also be selling hot dogs. You can choose to eat them on their own or top them off with some of the delectable chili being served. And, to top off your meal, they will also be offering some mouth-watering bake sale treats. Refreshments like beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase.

This incredible event is presented in partnership with Eureka Natural Foods and BiCoastal Media. Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to enjoy some of the best chili around!
