• Bring all of your chili ingredients, including any added garnishments you choose to provide. Be prepared to produce at least 8 gallons of chili. There will be lots of people who want to have a taste of your wonderful chili. Remember, they are sampling your chili, along with lots of others, so don’t go overboard when you put chili in their cup. If they want more, you can always give them more
• Tent(s) and Table(s) for your area.
• Decorations so you can look “COOL” and possibly win “Best Decorated Booth.”
• Cooking system for your chili and necessary equipment to keep it hot.
• All utensils needed for cooking and serving your delicious chili, except bowls. We provide serving cups, not spoons or napkins.
• Rubber Gloves since washing stations are limited and some distance away.

Chili will be judged on the following criteria….
Aroma, Color, Consistency, Flavor and Aftertaste
