The “Off the Chain” Chili Cook-Off, which supports a Pet Helpers program, will be held on Saturday, December 20th from noon until 6 pm. Proceeds from the event will go to Unchain Charleston, a group that spreads awareness about the plight of chained dogs and builds fences for chained dogs in the Lowcountry.

Although the event is a competition, spectators are certainly welcome. Regardless of what capacity you fill at the event, be sure to wear a tacky Christmas sweater.

Prizes will be rewarded in the following categories:

Most Unique Chili
People's Choice
Group that raises the most money for Unchain Charleston program\
Worst Christmas sweater

If you’d like to compete, send an e-mail to UnchainCharleston@pethelpers.org and ask for a registration form. Teams are responsible for providing all serving utensils and warming equipment, including extension cords. Tables, tasting cups, spoons, and napkins will be provided by the event’s hosts. Setup will begin at 11 am. A minimum of 6 quarts of Chili must be prepared. There is no entry fee, but donations to Unchain Charleston are appreciated.
