Who's gonna be our 1st Annual AOC Campfire Chili Cook Off Champion???

Sign up here if you want to be a taster and

vote for our AOC champion

but not cook.


Hey guys!

I have been doing the Atlanta Chili Cook Off with my friends for 12 years and it's always a blast!!

Now, the cool thing is our champion will select a team and the AOC will sponsor their booth to participate in the
Atlanta Chili Cook Off at Stone Mountain!! We will register and buy the booth, and you will buy your ingredients, make your chili and possibly win up to $4000 for your team if you take 1st place!! In the Atlanta Cook off you can also submit Brunswick Stew and Cornbread (which also has additional $$ prizes), but for our purposes, we'll stick to chili.

I'm really unsure how many folks will truly be interested so some of the details, like location etc will be left off for now. But here are the basics:

  • This will be a People's Choice Blind Taste test so we need lots of tasters!!
  • Blind means the Chili Cookers will be shuffled and will not be serving their own chili. We will record correct chili's before serving time.
  • The Chili Cookers will be provided with sample cups and a People's Choice submission box.
  • The Tasters will be provided with a People's Choice Coin and make their submission.
  • Sweet Corn Bread, Saltine Crackers, & Water will also be provided.

    Pre-registered Taste tickets will cost $10. $15 if you show up at the door. Come out and cast your vote!!
    REMEMBER: We can't have a winner if you don't come out and vote!!

  • If you want to enter a recipe you will be provided tasting cups by the AOC and you will provide your chili.
  • No charge for contest entrants (1 person per entry).
  • If you want to cook and enter your favorite chile recipe go to the cook page here.

    • Required Items to Bring:

  • Your tastebuds!!
    		• Recommended Items to Bring:
    Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

    How to Get There:
    Event Directions:

    Located where the social is next to Frankie's at the Prado. I 285 & Roswell Rd. Go South on Roswell and the Prado is the first shopping center on your right.


    Notes:

    Please note: the AOC will only pay for the registration and cost of booth and possibly provide some kitchen ware. All ingredients and misc cookware the winner needs will be paid for by winner, or winner's team. The Atlanta event actually requires at least 4 gallons to be served to the public.

    Important information for paid events in which payment is managed through the AOC:

         - Payment must be received by the payment due date and prior to participation in the event.

         - Some paid events require a minimum number of registered participants. If that number is not met, the event will be canceled and refunds will be issued to those who have already paid.

         - Third-party vendors often require damage deposits. Each registrant agrees to be liable for and required to reimburse the Atlanta Outdoor Club for any withheld deposits due to the actions of or damages caused by that registrant.

         - No partial payments. All registrants must pay the posted Member Cost regardless of any agreement you may have with any party involved in the event.

         - Read the event description carefully for additional information, and contact the trip leader(s) with any questions.

    * We encourage all members to follow our Etiquette Guidelines while participating in AOC events.
