Eve Mitchell, center, Steve Saylor, right, and Jacob Lewis, left, who placed first, second, and third, respectively.
The annual Lansdale Chili Cookoff made its return on Friday, following several years of cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year’s field of entries featured an unusual number of residential entries, as only two local businesses put their chili on the line. As such, it should come as no surprise that, for the first time, a residential entry was crowned the winner.
Congratulations to Eve Mitchell, who took home the top medal for this year’s competition. Additional congratulations to Steve Saylor and Jacob Lewis, who came in a close second and third, respectively.
Below is the full list of entries and their respective votes:
1) Eve Mitchell: 25
2) Steve Saylor: 22
3) Jacob Lewis: 19
4) Robert Dell’Orefice: 18
5) Montella’s Sports Bar: 17
6) Josh Bridge: 15
6) Stove & Tap: 15
8) Sarah Batory: 14
9) Mackenzie Lowery & Emma Ziegler: 12
