ACTIONS HEAT UP AT BROOKHAVEN’S ANNUAL CHILI COOK-OFF
Fall brings a lot of things to look forward to: Monday Night Football, sweater weather and a blaze of colorful foliage. Add to the list the annual Brookhaven Chili Cook Off. The competition will take place Oct. 8 at Brookhaven Park with more than 75 amateur and restaurant teams flaring up their burners and cooking their tastiest chili and Brunswick stew recipes. Sample it all until supplies run out and, along with the panel of official judges, pick your favorites. Your taste buds will also help choose the winner of the People’s Choice Award. Once you’ve filled your belly with all that spicy stew, enjoy a rousing game of cornhole, jam to two live bands and a DJ or run after the young’uns at the Kid Zone—working off some of those calories you just consumed in the process. – Jill Becker
