Entertainment, Events & Travel-by Emily Will

    Many of us enjoy cooking competitions on television,  such as Hell’s Kitchen, Iron Chef and Chopped, and may wonder if you have what it takes to compete in a cooking challenge. If you’d like to find out, you’re in luck… Citrus Hills is hosting a “Great Bowls of Fire” Chili Cook-Off on Thursday, September 12th!
   Contestants are competing for 1st, 2nd or 3rd place Best Chili Recipe and the “Fire Extinguisher” award. Winners will receive custom aprons, over $250 in cash prizes, a feature in the Connections, and the ever-important bragging rights! In addition, the first-place winner will have their recipe featured on the Grille menu for one week.
   Each contestant will be granted free admission to the event and must be a member of Citrus Hills to participate (a maximum of 10 contestants will be accepted, based on a “first come-first served” basis). And don’t worry if you’re not a cook… we need judges as well!
