Crap, I knew I should have shut my mouth!

So yeah, I volunteer. PM me if you are interested in participating and I'll make sure I keep the list handy.

1st rule of me volunteering... I get first taste!

**Edit** You can PM me or email the contact email given by Seth above. I forgot he put that there.

Hey all,
So we created an email for this event : chili@fjsummit.org

If you are interested, emailing this address will get in touch with the coordinators of the event !

This thing is gonna rock !

You're going to need a judge (or 3), that has both an iron stomach, and a gastronomical inclination / tolerance towards the spicy side of life.

I confess to both of these pre-conditioning conditions, and offer my services.

Chili good!

OK, so here's the low down:

-We plan to start between 5:30 and 6pm on Wednesday evening.

-Participants need to bring enough chili to make about 10-15 medium size servings. This should be enough for the judges and several people to have some. If you want to make more, that would be great.

-The chili is really all you need to bring (and some way to heat it up and/or keep it warm.) Bowls, napkins, spoons, etc. will be provided.

-For those not interested in the chili (I can't imagine who that might be) and to supplement the chili, there will also be burgers and hot dogs provided that evening.

-The plan is to have some small prizes for some category winners (maybe hottest, best veggie, best white chili - depends on what shows up) and then a substantial prize for the overall winner.

-To enter, please email us @ chili@fjsummit.org. We need at least 15 entrants to justify giving a nice prize to the winner.

So, come one, come all to the FJ Summit chili cook-off!


(P.S. - I don't know if it's possible, but could we move this post to the top of this thread? Or maybe Seth could copy and paste into his original post.)

I made about a gallon or 1 and a half, served more like 50 small nbowls of deliciousness. Also, you will need your own heat source, most had stoves or burners last year.

Oh, and pallet cleansers would be nice, but certainly not required. Chips, chunks of bread, crackers etc. Again, not required!
