Cook Entry Form

Our chili cookoff consists of four primary events:

  • Red Chili (ICS competition, with winner advancing to 2023 World Championships)
  • Traditional Chili (ICS competition, with winner advancing to 2023 World Championships)
  • People’s Choice (non-ICS competition, open to all cooks, local bragging rights)
  • Salsa (non-ICS competition, open to all cooks, local bragging rights)

Cooks must have a current ICS membership to compete in the ICS competition(s). The cookoff will follow Official ICS rules, so be sure to lookup definitions of Red and Traditional Chilis. Cooks that enter the Red Chili or Traditional Chili contests are automatically entered into the People’s Choice at no additional fee. If you do not want to enter the ICS competition, please signup as People’s Choice. In addition to the People’s Choice awards, prizes will also be given for Best of Elk River (must have mailing address on Elk River area) & Best Booth Awards.
