IGGPRA 1st Annual Chili Cookoff

Break out the Beans! It’s Chili time
June Mixer to feature a Chili Cook-Off and Rhone wine tasting at Terra Mia

Clean up your crock pot and get ready for the IGGPRA Chili Cook-Off to be held at the beautiful, new Terra Mia event center located at 1693 Arbor Road in Paso Robles.

CHILI COOK OFF:  There will be categories for the best classic and creative chili recipes. Winners will be determined by popular vote with prizes for the winners of each category. To enter, simply bring your chili in a crockpot or some other warming device or server, a serving spoon and an extension cord. There will be electricity available. Guests will have the opportunity to taste and rate the chili.

You don't have to enter the competition to attend. Along with the chili, there will be hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill and a Rhone varietal wine competition. You don't need to bring anything other than your appetite and a bottle of wine to share at the wine bar and/or a bottle of wine to enter into the wine tasting competition.

RHONE WINE VARIETAL TASTING & COMPETITION: In the wine competition, we’ll be looking for the “meatiest” red. The competition at the last mixer was fierce so be prepared to kick it up a notch. Bring your favorite, local red Rhone varietal that you think can stand up to the chili, or the coolest Rhone white that can put out the fire. There will be prizes for the best red and white wines. If you don’t want to compete, just bring a bottle of your favorite wine to share for the wine bar.

ABOUT THE LOCATION:

Whether you’re a chili fan or not, the location of this event will be a treat as you can be among the first to get a peek of the new Terra Mia. It’s one of the newest event locations in Paso Robles, and it’s sure to become one of the hottest in the region. Terra Mia is owned by IGGPRA members, Rich and Tracy Secchiaroli. The secluded setting is nestled among the rolling hills of their vineyard. It features a majestic waterfall whose current makes its way through a magnificent stream bed that cuts through the main terrace to a lake surrounded by oaks and willows. It will definitely spice up the chili cook-off.

The Chili Cook-off This is on father’s day weekend so be sure to gather your clan, to join in the fun. You do not need to enter the chili cook-off to attend. Watch for details and registration information in your email-box.
