(Beaver County, PA) Hundreds of people flocked to the lodge at Brady’s Run Park for the 7th annual Rochester Chamber Of Commerce Chili Cook off on Wednesday Evening.  Twelve different Chilis were sampled and judged in two different categories, “People’s Choice” and “Judge’s Choice”. Prior to the cook off, Beaver County Radio asked our listeners  to submit their favorite chili recipe.   Marisa Scalamonga’s recipe was chosen and made by WBVP-WMBA producer and show host Matt Drzik.  It must have been a good recipe or a great chef, or both, because it came in fourth place, receiving 18 votes in the people’s choice selection.  In the People’s Choice category, the finalists included:  3rd place: P.J.’s Deli, 2nd Place: Brady’s Run Grill and 1st place: Swinery BBQ.  The Judges awards went as follows . . .  3rd Place:  Swinery  BBQ, 2nd Place: P.J.’s Deli and First Place: Rochester Elks.  Pat Septak and Mike Romigh, along with his wife Julienne Romigh served the fabled “Listener Chili’   Here are some pictures from the event:
