It may not have been a chilly day, but it was a perfect day for chili.

Hundreds came to the 7th Annual Chili Cook-off at the Erie Maennerchor Club in Erie today. JET 24/FOX 66 reporter Elizabeth D'Aurora was a judge for the cook-off.

The purpose of the fundraiser was to raise funds for SafeNet, an Erie-based nonprofit organization dedicated to ending domestic violence in Erie.

The organization raised at least $5,000. All monies raised will help domestic violence victims here in Erie.

The winner of the cook-off is the Erie Maennerchor Club.

It is easy to make the best-tasting chili if you use real New Mexico Chili. Specifically, chili from Chimayo New Mexico; it is unsurpassed for quality and flavor. Not too hot, but deliciously warm with a smoky flavor. If you want to win the contest you should get some. If you can't afford the best, use Hatch chili. I order all my chile online from the CHIMAYO CHILE BROTHERS...here is a link to their website: http://www.chimayochilebros.com/shop
