2nd Place

Not bad for a first go at a chili competition. 

So last night I took second place in the MBA chili cook off.  While you might think the competition was not too tough, there were 12 chilis and at least one of the judges had actually judged a legitimate chili competition before.  I made a white chicken chili that Kelly makes sometimes and we like it a lot. I think that making something different gave me the edge that I needed.  It was kinda of like being a singer and picking the right song to compliment your vocal style.  I am a decent cook but nothing special so I went for the white chicken chili so it would stand out as different and not blend in with all the other chilis.  So I guess it worked pretty well.  My favorite coment, “Hey man I just wanted to shake your hand, that chili was bad ass.  Best white chicken chili I have ever had.”
