Made a batch of chili verde for the work chili cookoff...started with some country style ribs, and did a (tender)quick cure on about half of them.

smoked all of it on the WSM over cherry and mesquite

peeled it all, and put it together with some homemade chicken stock, and threw in the cubed up meat, and simmered for a few hours...

got lots of great feedback, but couldn't quite defend my title...went to what was, IMHO, a fairly run of the mill and ordinary red :tsk:

guess I'm gonna have to step up my game next year :evil:

oh well...I thought it came out pretty tasty :rolleyes:
 
Man, I hear ya...I lost to a guy who's chili my wife described as tasting like Chef-Boyardee Beefaroni. Though it worked out...most people in attendance ate his crap and allowed me to take more of mine home! ;)

Yours looks damn fine!
 
Red Flag

Throw the flag--we need a booth review
 
Chili Verde IMO is better than Red I'll pass a pot of red like a freight train for a bowl.

unfortunately for me, mine was all gone quick--I didn't even get to have a bowl :mmph:
 
Wow that is the best looking stuff I've seen in a while!

Maybe the reason you didn't win was because it was a chili cookoff, and you made chile verde, which in my opinion is way BETTER than any red chili!

Keep at it, I'm a bit jealous because I can't get those ingredients where I live.
