Only two Brethren teams?

That's too bad.

This is a People's Choice contest, so I hope to see some Brethren come down and try out the chili.

RAIN DATE next Sunday 4/29

Got the word due to good chance of rain all day tomorrow.
Probably a wise call, especially for the mc clubs riders and a bit easier on the chili cooks.

Stay tuned...
 
Congratulations to the Babylon Grillbillies!!!!

for taking 1st place in the Judged category today at the 81 Thunder Run and 5th Annual Chili cookoff.
Great day, lots of fun and pictures to follow when time permits.
Personal thanks to the Grillbillie team for helping me unpack and set up as well as Jim and Cathy from the Baldwin Butt Burners for helping me load up the car at the end.
Once again, major kudos to the Babylon Grillbillies for taking 1st place today.
Great job.:clap:

While going over the results of this years chili cook off to send the results out to the teams I came across an mistake that was made by me. The Rebellious Ones MC were awarded 5th place judged, it actually belongs to WESTEX BBQ and Rebellious Ones were tied for 6th place with MUTT & Geoff Chili Champs. For the integrity of the competition this will be corrected and an apology comes from me for my oversight. On that note here are the results for all who were curious where they finished.
