Chili Cook-Off

Teams bring the excitement and heat as they compete to create their own version of this spicy Southwestern delicacy! On the menu are various types of meat and vegetarian chili as well as alcoholic and virgin margaritas.

Results from a quick opening round of Southwestern trivia determines the order in which teams choose a chili type to create. Each team will also decide on a margarita recipe, restaurant name and logo design in order to produce a fun marketing mini-presentation.

The Team Experience:

  • An exciting opening icebreaker leads to ranking of teams later used to select special ingredients at the “marketplace”
  • Duties are delegated within teams to create their chili, margaritas, restaurant name/logo and marketing skit
  • Tables are equipped with all necessary equipment for teams to accomplish their tasks and to finish within the allotted time
  • Using an ‘American Idol’-style judging panel, “restaurants” present their work to the judges for taste testing and scoring
  • While scores are being tabulated, a networking session commences where participants visit each other’s restaurants and taste the competition dishes and drinks
  • Winners are announced and awarded their well-deserved culinary gold medals

Thanks again “Nation” for a fantastic session. It was great to get to know each other with such a fun and challenging event. The entire team participated in Igniting Peak Performance enthusiastically. Starting out as a pure competition and then to see the finale where teams worked together to beat the overall time was outstanding! The biggest takeaway from the activity today was that teams sharing best practices and working together elevate each other!

Our leadership team held our first face to face in over three years. Ray and the Team Building Nation team facilitated a Bike Build charity event that was unforgettable. The energy in the room with the different activities on the iPad were awesome and engaging. The icing on the cake was being able to hear from the local charity group that received the bikes.

Wanted to pass along that your facilitator was really great! She kept everyone laughing and having a great time during the entire session. In It To Win It was the perfect ending to a busy day online and it really helped the team to de-stress for an hour or so. Job well done!

We are so glad we chose “Nation” and the Bike Building activity. It was great that our in-house team and our remote employees around the country were all able to participate in the event. We typically give back to local charities but putting the bikes together made everyone feel more involved. Feedback was great!

I can’t thank you guys enough for a well executed program. The Virtual Team iHunt event was just what we needed to break things up a bit and reenergize our group. It was hilarious seeing the pictures and videos taken during the event of everyone scavenging in and around their houses. Thanks for a good time!
