Have a hearty meal and rock out to the tunes of Irish band The Blaggards Feb. 6 at the Third Annual Rory Miggins Memorial Irish Stew Cookoff.

Or, if you want to test out your cooking chops against the veterans, submit your creations in categories like Irish stew, open Irish dish or dessert. (Though we have it on good authority that a mean Bailey's-and-caramel homemade ice cream will be in the running, and having tasted it, we'd stick to the stew).

Proceeds benefit the St. Patrick's Day parade and memorializes music-lover Rory Miggins, co-founder of Local Charm on Telephone Road.
