On February 9, 2013 from 12p-6:00p RP Funding and Events for Change, Inc. bring you the 4th annual Orlando Chili Cook-Off at Festival Park in the heart of The City Beautiful.

Orlando Chili Cook-off is the premier chili competition sanctioned by the Chili Appreciation Society International (CASI). Since its inception, CASI has sanctioned thousands of Cook-offs and has raised millions of dollars for charities — and this tradition continues here in Orlando.

The Orlando Chili Cook Off, which began as a small gathering of friends and chili-lovers, has now become a regional event attracting cooks and attendees throughout Central Florida and the southeastern states. Teams can win trophies and prizes for the best CASI chili or the best open chili categories. Also, a best-in-showmanship award will be presented for the most entertaining chili team.
