Preparation & Guidelines
- Ingredients may be pre-cooked prior to the commencement of the official cook-off. Meat may be treated, pre-cut or ground. Please print out a copy of the ingredients to display the day of the cookout. This is for safety to prevent a food allergy incident.
- The cooking period must occur within 24 hours of event. Chili must be kept in a crock pot or other warming container that will be placed for entry at 12:00 PM noon immediately before the Pinewood Derby begins.
- The contestant must prepare chili using their own selected recipe and ingredients. They must also supply all of their own serving utensils and containers for holding the chili. (Pack 815 will provide a table and electric outlet to plug in crock pots the day of the event.)
- Guest will receive a voting card, and will rank the submissions by 1,2 and 3.
