Chili Brew-Off

Saturday, January 31st, 2026

The Chili Brew-Off is the Chagrin Valley Jaycees’ wintertime fundraiser, where local businesses, restaurants, and individuals compete in the Valley’s largest chili cook-off, paired with brews from local microbreweries. Originally coordinated by the Chagrin Falls Fire Department to fund firefighter training facilities, the event has grown into a beloved Valley tradition. Four awards are given to chili entries, and one award is given to the best micro-brewer.
