United Contractors Chili Cookoff; Wheeler Takes 3rd

amateur chefs cooking chili in a home kitchen

On August 1st, a crew of fearless Wheeler chefs set out to make the best pot of chili for the United Contractors Annual Chili Cookoff. Thanks to Michael Gurr, Kim Cabanayan, Jennifer Hauck, Ryan Niederer, Anthony Luna, and Joseling Torrez for representing us as team Chili Chili Bang Bang.

Big shout out to Jamie Megrath as well, who donated the recipe (with a kick!), Angela Wamsley for arranging all the equipment and swag (aren’t those aprons spiffy?) and Michael for opening his kitchen for the concoction process.

I am proud to say, the hard work over a hot stove paid off and earned us a 3rd place trophy!
