'Chilimaster' Cook-Off Heats Up Halloween

Each Halloween a panel of brave GBA judges has the somewhat dubious pleasure of taste testing as many as 40 different chili and soup recipes to determine the recipients of the Golden Ladle trophy, and this year was no exception!

The annual “Chilimaster Cook-Off”…actually a soup category has been added since the contest originated but the name remains unchanged…attracts a group of enthusiastic GBAers who vie for trophies and bragging rights. It’s all in fun, as we enjoy the fare including some pretty tasty dogs, brats, burgers, and much, much more.

Congratulations to this year's winners!
