Chili Advice

Posted: January 5th, 2013 | Author: | | 3 Comments »

We had an MTR chili cook off last year. Stacy outpaced Orin, Laura, and Randall.

I’m going to enter this year. Here’s what I need: a chili recipe tip that brings home the gold. I’m playing to win.

Some context. Orin’s already put his strategy on the table. He’s gonna dial up the heat. Plus he learned from last year’s feedback: it won’t be watery this time. Meanwhile, Big Tuba McCue may enter a vegetarian version. I can’t imagine that winning, but he might snag some votes from vegetarians who won’t taste the other entrants. Although I can still imagine his losing to: plain bread.

Do not put your great idea in the comments section. Randall in particular is likely to swoop in and use it for his own chili. Email me.

    For the record, this is cheating.

    JG, it’s harder to cheat than I’d guessed. I’ve got 5 competing recipe ideas already.

    Post them.
