2024 Red Gold Chili Cook-off & Run to Crush Hunger
The annual Red Gold Chili Cook-Off is back and scheduled for Saturday, October 19. The event is co-sponsored by Red Gold and the Elwood Chamber of Commerce and features an array of unique chili recipes, ranging in tastes from sweet-and-mild to hot-and-spicy. Each team of chili cooks receives complimentary Red Gold products for use in their recipe, and teams compete for cash prizes provided by Red Gold.
