The cool weather has set in quite nicely for one of the top food events of the city: the Atlanta Chili Cook-off.

This family-friendly event takes place on Saturday, November 16, 2024 from 12–4 PM at Brook Run Park in Dunwoody, Georgia.

The event features over 50 chili recipes from amateur chefs, restaurants, and caterers, and attendees can vote for their favorite. General admission tickets are $15, and VIP tickets are $30. 

Here are some tips for participating in or hosting a chili cook-off:

Rules

Some rules for chili cook-offs include using commercial chili powder but not complete commercial chili mixes, and cooking in a sanitary manner. 

Judging

Judges typically taste the chili individually and anonymously. To win, chili should look good, smell good, and taste good, and it should retain its quality while hot, warm, lukewarm, and cool.
