Balsam's First Annual Chili Cook-Off

Well, with October right around the corner I can’t help but think back to growing up in Vermont and watching all the bright red, gold and orange leaves come out for one final blaze of glory. Every year for my birthday my mother would take a group of my hooligan friends for a “hike” up Mount Philo…well we hiked; she met us at the top with a big pot of chili. That still stands out as one of my favorite memories of growing older but not up. That is why, with great pleasure, I'm announcing the First Annual Balsam Mountain Preserve Chili Cook-off happening Saturday, October24 at the Pavilion. Please have your best chili recipe in hand by 11:45 a.m., we will provide chafers to keep it hot along with all of the sides, accompaniments etc. Please contact April to sign up as soon as possible as space is limited and you would not want to miss out on your chance to win the coveted “Traveling Ladle”. Good luck and I expect to see everyone there.

Cheers,

Chef Jonathon

P.S. Wine pick of the Month….Orin Swift “The Prisoner” DELICIOUS!!!!
