chili cook-off
Pepper stew contest
A chili cook-off is a cooking competition where participants prepare their own versions of chili, typically judged on taste, texture, and heat.
These events range from neighborhood gatherings to sanctioned tournaments with strict rules about ingredients and preparation: The church hosts an annual chili cook-off every fall.
Winners often guard their recipes jealously.
