10th annual Asses of Fire Chili Cookoff

Every year around this time, we here at the well that’s cool headquarters get the hankering for the savory bean, meat and spice concoction known as chili. So how do we fulfill the gastronomic self flagellation of ingesting as many batches of chili as we can while drinking beer? The “10th Annual Asses of Fire Chili Cookoff” at Egans of course. So if you got some mad chili skills and want to show them off to Tuscaloosa, come to Egans on Saturday Feb. 19th. Registration is from 2:00pm to 3:45pm with judging by panel starting at 4:15pm. You’ll need to bring a crock pot, your own ladle and $3 to enter. We will award the top two chilis with cash prizes with third place taking home a case of beer. It gets even better. If you take the time to make a chili, you shall be rewarded with $1.50 Shetland (8oz) as well as $2.50 full pints of any of Egans drafts. If you wish to partake in the adventure but don’t want to make a chili,  you may dine on the smorgasboard of chilis for a mere 3$.  Is there a better way to spend a non-football Saturday in Tuscaloosa than hanging out with cool people, drinking beer and eating chili? We dare say no. Hope to see you there!

    i was wondering- is this a general flavor, heat, or both type of competition?

    It’s general flavor. How the heat balances with the chili as a whole. Anybody can make one that’s just super hot.
