Brian Baumgartner cooked up laughs and a fantastic meal during the Bush’s Chili Beans Night with Eventbrite.

“The Office” star was in New York City on Nov. 18 to host a special dinner that celebrated the launch of the new Chili Nights booking platform. Some lucky guests were able to grab seats on an early activation on Eventbrite during the exclusive ‘Chili Night’ dinner. The chili fans were treated to a meal that was memorable and sizzling with fun.

The actor, author, and chili connoisseur stirred up a scrumptious meal from his own recipe and shone a spotlight on the importance of a meal like this.  More than ever, Americans are craving a joyous affair that fills tummies with delicious meals and brings bliss to the table during a special gathering.

“Bush’s Chili Beans? Yeah… they’ve always been the not-so-secret weapon in my family’s chili,” said Baumgartner. “But it’s more than just what’s in the pot – chili has this way of bringing people together. It can turn an ordinary Tuesday into something special. So, I’m teaming up with Bush’s to help more folks bring back those moments, because chili night? That’s always a good night.”

For chili makers that can’t make it to NYC, the new Chili Nights booking platform makes hosting these special dinners seamless from the comfort of home.

The first 200 hosts who sign up through 11:59 p.m. ET on November 24 (or while supplies last) unlock everything they need for a memorable Chili Night, including an exclusive toolkit with Bush’s Chili Beans coupons, Brian’s famous chili recipe, and his expert tips for hosting sent directly to their home.

“With life moving 100 miles per hour, shared family meals often fall by the wayside. Our Chili Nights booking platform is a way to press pause and make room for connection around the table,” said BJ Thomas, Brand Manager at Bush’s Beans. “Whether it’s a weeknight dinner at a friend’s place or a full-on chili celebration, we’re here to help make Chili Nights an easy, delicious tradition worth gathering for.”

Masterfully slow-simmered to perfection in a rich sauce with a unique blend of spices infused into every bean, Bush’s Chili Beans are the secret ingredient for making homemade chili even better. Bush’s Chili Beans are the key to an award-winning recipe and have been the go-to ingredient for both world champion chili and office chili cookoffs.

Available in both mild and spicy sauce varieties, Bush’s Chili Beans can be found on shelves nationwide; to locate a store near you, visit www.bushbeans.com/en_US/product-locator/find-in-store.
