Chili Cook-off Information

Harvest Chili Cook-off: Information/rules

Each team will need a chant/cheer, decorated table/booth and of course, the best chili they can make. Judges will be awarding prizes for the best of each of those categories.  To sign-up, please email the following information to chili@harvesthouston.org:

- Team name
- Team members
- Do you need a propane burner?  Do you need an electrical outlet (how many?)?

So starting searching and experimenting with recipes and form your team!!

The church will provide propane burners, if needed (first come, first serve), electrical outlets (please let us know, ahead of time, how many), a table, reimbursement of food items (save those receipts!), drinks, and the “other stuff” (cups, drinks, napkins, plates, etc) but other than these things (pans, pots, etc…), the team will need to supply!

Additional Rules:

1.  Chili must be cooked, entirely, on-site.  Any pre-cooked chili is disqualified.  Since chili must be slow cooked for many hours, teams can come in the morning to start cooking so that the chili will be ready by the mid-afternoon.

2.  Teams can be as small as 2 people, but it’s much more enjoyable to have a large team!

3.  In case of rain, the event will be moved indoors, in the kitchen/gym.

Teams Entered:

1. Cypress Chili Chicks

2. Chillin’ 40′s

3. The A Team

4. Lily’s Got Chili

5. Brokeback Mountain Chili

LipDub

hARVEST lIPDUB vIDEO: nOV. 12TH

In conjunction with the Chili Cook-off, Harvest will be engaging in another first…our first lipdub video! What’s a lipdub video you ask? Well, it’s a video (several can be found on youtube) where people are filmed lip syncing to a song while doing crazy/funny stuff in one continuous take. It’s going to be alot of fun to make, but we need LOTS and LOTS of help! First of all, we need LOTS and LOTS of people! Also, need everyone to brainstorm and think of funny stuff to do. The video will be a welcome/promotional video for Harvest on the website. So this video will really need to capture the character and personality of the church and we definitely have alot of that! So, stay tuned for details on how to participate!
