Competing entries to the Chili cook off will be challenging your taste buds to some of the tastiest recipes you’ve ever had on Tuesday, December 13th from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, at the Citrus Heights Community Center.

Chili will be judged in three distinct categories: Judge’s Choice, People’s Choice, and Hottest Chili. Our judges include Citrus Heights Police Chief Alex Turcotte; Ray Ward, Chamber Board Chair; City Manager Ash Feeney; Mayor Porsche Middleton; and Board Member Al Gonzalez.
