Moosehaven Annual Chili Cook-off
Sat, Nov 14, 2026 · Orange Park, FL · ICS-sanctioned
Our take written by Chili Times
The Moosehaven Annual Chili Cook-off is held on the Moosehaven campus on Park Avenue in Orange Park, which the listing places next to the St John River. Unlimited chili sampling is $5 from 11am to 2:30pm, with a classic car show, a kid zone and food trucks.
It runs two categories, Traditional Red at $45.00 and Chili Verde at $40.00, and its cook details give each team a 10x10 space and require ICS membership.
