Chili cook-off heats up Wintertainment

Feb 17, 2017 | 1:00 PM

It’s time to dig out your favourite recipe and take part in the second Annual Chili Cook-off during Wintertainment next week in North Battleford.

The event will highlight the Thursday, Feb. 23 activity lineup at the Nations west Field House from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

“Last year’s cook-off was a very popular and well attended so the organizers had to bring it back,” North Battleford City Clerk Debbie Wohlberg told battlefordsNOW. “We are expecting to see more people bring their chili expertise to this year’s cook-off and compete for top honours.”

Contestants are encouraged to prepare their chili at home and bring it to event where it will be sampled by the public and voted on. The votes will be tallied up and the entry with the most votes will win the competition. Last year Heather Keller and her son Cameron took the award thanks to her sweet medium heat chili.
