The competition and the heat were high Thursday for Organic Detroit’s 3^rd Annual Chili Cook-off where a hungry crowd tasted an array of chili recipes, enjoyed watermelon and strawberry margaritas and cheered on their chef colleagues. What do we do when the temperature is above 90⁰?  It’s never too HOT in the kitchen for Organic.

Our first-place winner was Joel Pritchard who won for his chili “Junk In Da Trunk”. Our Technology Director, Bob Kuck came in 2nd place for his “White Bean Chicken Chili” (WBCC).

And finally, our 3^rd place winner rocked out with a chili that was better than an honorable mention Jeannette’s “Ole Faithful.”

All the contestants took home Arizona Dreaming Southwest Chili spice blend, so every contestant at Organic was a winner!

Safe to say, Junk In Da Trunk takes the cake.
