Uncle Ronnie's and Norma Coton Memorial cook-offs

Sat, Nov 21, 2026 and Sun, Nov 22, 2026 · Katy, TX · CASI-sanctioned

Our take written by Chili Times

Two CASI cook-offs share 1050 Katy Fort Bend Road in Katy on consecutive days, both benefiting Katy Elks Charities with an open meat requirement. The 27th Annual Uncle Ronnie's Chili Cookoff on Saturday costs $30.00 with a 2pm turn-in. The 6th Annual Norma Coton Memorial Chili Cookoff on Sunday costs $25.00 with a 12pm turn-in.

Saturday's listing adds jackpot beans at $10 with a noon turn-in, jackpot salsa at $10 with a 1pm turn-in, and a Local Homestyle Chili category at $30, open to Katy Elks or Katy residents.

Our plain-language reading of the sanctioning body's listing quoted on this page. It adds no facts of its own.
