Chugwater Chili

Chugwater Chili Corporation started in 1986, when five local farm and ranch families purchased the Wyoming State Championship Chili Recipe and turned it into a “for-profit” business to help the surrounding community and town of Chugwater.  Now thirty-six years later, local, Karen Guidice, owns Chugwater Chili Corporation keeping the Chugwater Chili tradition going strong.

Over the years, Chugwater Chili has grown from making a convenient award winning chili blend enjoyed in many households to creating a variety of other fun seasoning blends. These blends include a southwestern ranch dip mix, award winning green chili and hot chili seasoning, and smoky and spicy steak rub. We have also expanded outside of seasonings to a red pepper jelly, beef sticks, cocktail salt rimmer, and cookbook.

From humble beginnings in a ranch bunkhouse, our corporation headquarters are now located at 210 1st Street, Chugwater, Wyoming.

As our billboards along the highway suggest; we welcome visitors to stop in for a free taste of our products as well as to say “Hello”.
