2025 Firehouse Chili Cookoff

  • Brown's Revolution Hall 425 River Street Troy, NY, 12180 United States (map)

Join us for this year’s Firehouse Chili Cookoff as we celebrate the culinary talents of the brave firefighters who serve and protect us all. The competition is exclusively for firehouse chefs and will be judged in two categories: Taste Panel and People's Choice. The winning firehouse judged for Best Tasting Chili will receive the Golden Eddy Award, as well as a Chili Masters Grand Prize. Silver Eddy and Bronze Eddy trophies will be awarded for second and third best tasting chilis as judged by our discerning and esteemed taste panel. A People's Choice Award will go to the firehouse receiving the most votes from cookoff attendees. The coveted Sluppy Puppy Award will go to the firehouse with the best display. Firefighter’s interested in participating in the competition should e-mail niki@brownsbrewing.com for more information.

The $15 general admission at the door includes samples from the participating firehouses. Proceeds from admission will benefit the Burn Center and the Firefighters Association of the State of New York Firefighter’s Home.

Revolution Hall’s bar will be open during the event.
