3rd Annual Chili Cook Off

Join us for delicious chili, friendly competition, and fun! Presented by the Historic Roswell Kiwanis!

The Historic Roswell Kiwanis Chili Cook-Off is a community-focused fundraiser that brings together local chili enthusiasts, businesses, families, and friends for an afternoon of food, competition, and fellowship.

The event began in 2024 and is held at Oak Street Bottle Shop in Historic Roswell. The first cook-off featured both amateur and professional chili makers competing in categories including Best Chili, Hottest Chili, and Best Presentation. Attendees can sample the entries and participate in the People's Choice-style experience.

The cook-off supports the Kiwanis Club of Historic Roswell's broader mission of serving children and strengthening the local community.

The event has continued to grow: the 2026 edition is scheduled for October 10 at 1:00 p.m. at Oak Street Bottle Shop and is being promoted as the club's 3rd Annual Chili Cook-Off.

In short: It's a fun, neighborhood-oriented chili competition that combines great food and friendly rivalry with fundraising for the children and community programs supported by Historic Roswell Kiwanis.
