Although this has been an extremely mild winter in North Texas (so far), it is still the best time of year to enjoy a soothing bowl of spicy brick red chili. Look for the first chili cook-off of what the organizers trust will be an annual event in Trinity Groves at the 3015 event complex February 8, 2015 from noon to 5pm. Although not a sanctioned event, the rules are just as stiff with on-site cooking and a minimum of four gallons required for both a people’s choice and a judges panel award.
The event is billed as a craft beer and chili cook-off, and chili cooks will be required to use a minimum of beer in their recipe.
The Dallas Craft Beer and Chili Bowl will feature teams from the Bishop Cider Company, Deep Ellum Brewing Company, Lakewood Brewing, the Texas Ale Project, Four Corners, Haus of Growlers and LUCK in Trinity Groves. The event will benefit the North Texas Food Bank. Tasting kits available for $15 per person.
