5:00pm - Fellowship Dinner

Join us for Mt. Zion's very First Chili Cook-Off!

This is a fundraiser for our ASP trip this summer.

​

Contestants will prepare 3-4 quarts of chili as a donation. A slate of impartial judges will determine who has the best chili by these categories:

 

APPEARANCE

CONSISTENCY

AROMA

TASTE

AFTER TASTE

 

The judges will also judge the presentation of your chili serving area.

​

Your display may also win the "People's Choice Award" - voted by those who attend the dinner after the cook-off.

​

​

The theme is

"My Favorite Team:

Football Time of Year".

​

Your chili will need a name around the theme and you'll need to

indicate the level of heat. Any chili recipe is allowed...with beans, without beans, meatless, white, whatever you think is best!

​

Participants are not limited to members of Mt. Zion so invite your friends or neighbors to join you!

​

After judging, we will serve up chili for dinner. We're asking for a $5 per person or $20 per family donation. Salad, cornbread and dessert will also be provided.

​

The winner gets bragging rights, a trophy and a good meal of chili with all the fixings.
