17th Annual Poetry and Chili Fest

March 11

Beat the winter blues with an evening of great chili and cornbread, talented local poets, ice cold Cape Cod Beer, frosty Margaritas, and DJ Keith Lemire spinning hot tunes all night long. The evening begins with the Chili and Cornbread Contest from 6 to 7 PM. Samples of an eclectic array of chili and cornbread recipes are included in the price of admission. Contestants are invited to bring enough chili and/or cornbread for 150 or more small tastings. Cooks must register in advance, and must read the USDA’s guidelines on Cooking for Groups. Cooks are encouraged to provide chili toppings, such as cheese, guacamole, and sour cream, and to decorate their stations. Prizes will be awarded for Best Chili, Best Cornbread, and Best Decorated Station. Acclaimed Cape Cod poet Christine Ernst leads the Poetry portion of the event, which begins about 7 PM, followed by music and dancing.

Free tickets are provided to registered cooks.
