G.Irish Wrote:I've never been to one of these chili cookoffs, maybe it's a fly by the seat of your pants event. In my experience though, any event like this has substantial pre-planning, so knowing approximately how many people a month or so out is a good thing.Sijray21 Wrote:Dragon Wrote:Only 9 people so far, rather weak showing from MM. Not to mention 4 of those don't count since we live there.

Everything is planned out a month in advance, I know about three weeks ahead of time approx how many people are gonna show, food and beverages are purchased with two weeks to go. That way I'm not running around like a chicken with it's head cut off the week of the event or even the night before. It's just like getting prepped for a track day.Dragon Wrote:substantial pre-planning What you described is just like any other night of the week hanging out with some friends, I guess that's what the chili cookoff is, not a throw down party. My bad.

It is indeed good. I had about two bowls of it. I tried the others as well, but the taste and spiciness hit the nail on the head.

It's about being hot, but being so damn good you don't really care.

Although when people travel in a northern direction( i.e. going up to NYC) they usually say they are coming up, but because the Shenandoah River flows south to north and drains into the Potomac River, this is actually correct vernacular.
