During the 4th annual Utah Firefighter Chili Cook-off, firefighters from 13 stations will compete for bragging rights and a good cause.

There will be a judge's and people's choice award for the best chili. Teams also will compete for the most money raised and the best booth category. In the past, teams have used fire poles, working sirens and emergency lights and smoke machines to garner votes.

Last year, the event raised $10,000 to help finance activities and programs at the University of Utah's Burn Camp.
