To bean, or not to bean...
That, my chili-loving friends, will be the question at 3 p.m. on Nov. 1 on UHD’s South Deck, as the annual Chili Cook-Off kicks off with food, fun, and good ol’ fashioned bonhomie. This edition of the event will feature 14 competing teams, a live DJ with Chris Castaneda Trio, carnival games, airbrush tattoo artists, craft vendors, and, of course, an amazing skyline view.
So, bring your appetite and taste, rate, and, as befits the season, vote on some of the best chili recipes around. And don’t despair: Whether you're a spice enthusiast or prefer a milder flavor, there's something for everyone at this flavorful event.
