Our festive Chili Cook-Off combines fun icebreakers for corporate events with a spicy cooking competition, designed to increase camaraderie within a group. Culinary skills will come in handy as each team develops their own chili recipe to create an unforgettable southwestern delicacy.

This event requires organization and teamwork, therefore a head chef will be designated from the start, whose responsibility is to oversee the specific assignments for the rest of the team.

Several tasks will be occurring simultaneously including prepping and cooking the chili, decorating their head chef’s apron, and creating a presentation or jingle that will showcase the uniqueness of their team. Participants will also earn points for their team using Apple iPads® which deliver text, audio and video clues, chili trivia and exciting gaming challenges.  All your memories of this delicious event will be captured with photos and video of your teams in action.

When the judging begins, scorecards will be utilized to award points based on creativity, presentation, and taste. One team will emerge triumphant as the reigning Chili Cook-Off Champions! Judges can either be members of the participating company or event staff.

To ensure a great experience, aspects of these team building activities may be modified for your group size, group makeup, time available, and other variables.

Other options for this fun event include adding a Margarita or Sangria Challenge.

Since you like this program, you may also consider Virtual Classic Rewind as a remote option!

Lots of great remarks about how much the event was enjoyed. Attaining the ingredients and actually cooking the chili was the most fun and shooting photo challenges with the iPads was a great team builder. Our Chili Cook-Off was extremely well organized. Great job guys!

The Chili Cook-Off event was a huge success! Our group is pretty competitive by nature, so the addition of the iPad challenges was a big hit. Each team really got into the competition and had a blast cooking, taking pictures and videos, and completing each challenge. The staff on-site from Best Corporate Events was awesome. Your lead facilitator was terrific to work with both on the planning side and during our event. His positive attitude and high-energy personality really pumped up the group and made it that much more of a fun experience. The whole program went off flawlessly, and I really appreciate the hard work and dedication that went into putting everything together. I hope to work with you guys in the future!! Thanks!

The Chili Cook-Off and A Minute 2 Win It! events went very well and your lead facilitator was a pleasure to work with.  We were also glad that she was able to do both events.  We really liked how she put the teams together (20-30 minute prep) as it forced the people to mingle with people they didn’t know.  We would definitely use Best Corporate Events again in the future. Thanks for all your help!

Your whole team did an amazing job for us. They delivered an outstanding Chili Cook-Off event for our group from start to finish. Communication and follow up were excellent throughout the time I worked with you. The event itself was well organized and you really knew how to get the enthusiasm and energy flowing. I look forward to a future event with your company. Thanks!

      What is a Keynote Speaker?

      Keynote Speaker is an often-misunderstood term associated with simply a motivational speaker, breakout speaker, industry expert, etc. Most professional speakers are not actual trained Keynote Speakers, who are specialists, therefore in much lower supply, and in higher demand.

      Keynote Speakers are experienced, professional communicators who engage an audience, capturing the essence of a client’s meeting. They are able to highlight it to their audience while simultaneously delivering their own key concepts and proprietary content in an entertaining and impactful way. Most companies understand that this specialization is very much worth the time (around an hour) and the investment.

      In order to capture the perfect essence, a Keynote Speaker spends the necessary time researching a client’s industry, their issues, and their audience to craft a customized presentation into a unique and distinctive moment specifically for the client’s event.

      As a top Keynote Speaker, Tom Leu strategically uses compelling storytelling, humor, powerful visuals, audio and video clips, and audience participation elements to weave an impactful message into your event in a fun and memorable way. Tom can also pair his Keynote with Best Corporate Events programming, laying a foundation and setting a tone that best prepares participants for maximum engagement in the forthcoming team events that day.
