Will your department emerge triumphant as the chili champions? Or can’t you stand the heat?
The Battle of the Plant Sciences Chili Cook-Off will be on Friday, November 18 from 3 to 6 p.m. in 135 Emerson. The Departments of Horticulture, Plant Biology, Plant Breeding, Crop and Soil Sciences and Plant Pathology should assemble their best chili chefs in three categories: 1) Meat, 2) Vegetarian, and 3) Wild-Card (contains at least one non-traditional chili ingredient).
Students, faculty, and staff are all welcome to participate! Email chili entries to Kelly (kelly.swarts@gmail.com) to enter the contest, including the following info: 1) names of cooks, 2) department 3) category, and 4) name of chili. Registration deadline is Friday, November 11. We only have room for 25 chili entrants–so don’t delay registering!
There will be prizes for the winners of each chili category. The Cook-Off will also feature a door prize raffle with prizes from local businesses!
We look forward to hearing from you!
