Chili & Soup Requirements

All chili and soup entries should be delivered in a crockpot to maintain warmth throughout the event. Participants are encouraged to bring any additional garnishments that complement their dish, such as shredded cheese or sour cream. This ensures a delightful tasting experience for all attendees.

Dessert Specifications

For dessert entries, please prepare enough to provide 50 bite-sized servings. Examples include a single cake or a pan of brownies, pre-cut for convenience. This allows attendees to sample a variety of desserts easily. Our team will supply sampler plates and forks for your convenience.
