More than 30 professional and amateur teams have already signed up to participate in this year’s 4th annual Brookhaven Chili Cookoff, set for Oct. 10 at Brookhaven Park.

Organizers say the family friendly event will feature live music and plenty of food offerings -- besides chili, of course -- from vendors such as Tex’s Taco, Fry Guy & The Atlanta Burger Truck food trucks.
