3rd Annual Chili & Cookie Cookoff

As part of this years Fair on the Farm, the Seed St. Louis Young Friends Board will be hosting its 3rd Annual Chili & Cookie Cookoff! Fair attendees will have the opportunity to buy tickets to taste chili and cookies, and then vote for their favorites.

Think your chili brings the heat or your cookies steal the show? Enter the competition and put your culinary skills to the test! You can compete in one, or both, categories.

  • Chili: Please prepare approximately 1 gallon of chili. This is usually a double batch of a standard recipe, or 1.5x depending on the recipe.
  • Cookies: Bring enough for at least 40 people to taste.
  • Prizes: Locally made trophies, a Seed St. Louis goodie bag, bragging rights as the best chili or cookie chef in town!
