Sorry for your loss buddy [emoji3525]
But that does sound pretty darn tasty! [emoji39]
What did you think of your co-workers chili?
I do our company chili cook-off almost yearly. You just cant guess what judges are looking for. I made a darn good pot of chili, one that has won year after year. But get this..i tied for second with someone who had 1. never made chili before 2. is Vegetarian and 3. Made a fish chili to top it off.
With that Im not sure Ill compete this year.
Lost a chili cook off at work to a coworker who made his chili with hamburger, polish sausage, and bacon!
Call for a do over and make a batch of Ghost Pepper Chili. You still won't win, but a statement will have been made.
I once had someone tell me BBQ was nothing more than pig parts drenched in BBQ sauce. :shock:I'd start where the judges usually eat at or what their definition of a chili is Neil. To some people I've cook bbq for, Lucille's BBQ ribs drenched in sweet ketchup or brisket with sauce is way better than the crap I served them. :laugh:
