Henry Stephens has been cooking chili for 8 years and has even won a world championship. He traveled all the way from Texas to come to Chillifest this year and loves coming to this competition each and every year. 

Stephens went on to say that there were some challenges with the competition this year, but that the Chillifest committee did a world class job running the competition this year. 

Chillifest took place October 3rd and 4th on the Taylorville Square. For more information about Chillifest, please visit chillifest.info. That’s Chillifest with two L’s.
