The author of Pie Contest in a Box gets chili fans fired up with "a playful kit with judge and prize ribbons, scorecards and an instruction manual" (Statesman).
Chili cook-offs, a fall tradition, have exploded in popularity over the last several years. Easy to organize and yummy to participate in, chili cook-offs are a perfect entertaining event.
The booklet in Chili Cook-Off in a Box explains why chili cook-offs matter today, and describes the history of chili from pre-Columbian campfires to today's vegan versions. It gives instructions on how to organize the event around themes, such as five-alarm, vegetarian, carnivore's delight, red chili, green chili, etc., and has profiles of chili cook-off winners with prize-winning recipes and tips.
Included in the ebook is a link to download and print the following items, which makes it easy to customize your own materials. • Sheet to Track Entries (name, type of chili, designated number) • Numbered Table Tents (so judges don't know whose chili is whose) • Scorecards (rating taste, texture, appearance, creativity) • Judge Badges • Prize Ribbons for Contest Winners
