Walser Auto Campus Spices Things Up

October 18th, 2023 by

On September 30th, the Walser Auto Campus turned up the heat at the Wichita Wagon Masters Chili Cookoff held at Naftzger Park. Proudly serving as a presenting sponsor for this sizzling event, Walser not only sponsored but also entered the People’s Choice chili contest. Our very own Jason Scharnhorst, Parts Manager at BMW of Wichita, carried the team with a chili creation that captivated taste buds and was truly worthy of mention.

Jason’s Chili wasn’t just a dish; it was a labor of love. He dedicated several days to perfecting his recipe, laboring over the smoker to infuse flavors and working tirelessly to ensure it was reheated to perfection on-site. In a grand culinary endeavor, Jason whipped up an impressive 35 gallons of chili, a testament to the passion and dedication poured into this savory creation. The Walser Auto Campus team came together, showcasing the spirit of collaboration and camaraderie that defines our community and playing an important role in getting chili to the mouths of voters!

The Wichita Wagon Masters Chili Cookoff drew an estimated 7,000 individuals from the community who eagerly sampled the mouthwatering offerings from various Wichita businesses and organizations. The aroma of simmering spices and the lively atmosphere made it an event to remember.

As a team that thrives on excellence, Walser Auto Campus was delighted to contribute to the success of this flavorful gathering. The Chili Cookoff not only celebrated the diversity of Wichita’s culinary scene but also underscored the importance of community engagement and spirited competition.

At Walser Auto Campus, we don’t just drive; we savor the journey, whether on the road or in the kitchen. Stay tuned for more exciting adventures as we continue to bring passion and flavor to the Wichita community!
