Our annual Chili Cook-Off is back for year eight and things are heating up. Join us Sunday, February 22 starting at noon as amateur chili cooks battle it out for bragging rights, a trophy, and beer prizes. The first 20 cooks to register by February 18 will compete in our beer garden while an esteemed panel of judges crowns the 2026 Chili Champion. 

Not cooking? No problem. Guests can sample chili, hang out, and vote for the People’s Choice Award by bringing an item to donate to PORCH Durham. Eat chili, support a good cause, and enjoy a very spicy Sunday.
