Y...Thanks Kymber, <br />I will let you know how it goes.<br />You are lucky not to have had to be in this heat. They say you get used to it but I beg to differ.

There are rules we have to follow on how it's made and what goes in it. <br />I cook with 7 of the top 10 chili cooks in the world and they teach me something new every time we cook together. <br />My team is 15th in the nation so when I say mine ain't no good, I'm just comparing it to the big dogs.

To me, there's a fine line between HEAT and SPICY. Some days, we want a milder with spaghetti. Some days we want "runny" like we had in grade school. <br /><br />If YOU and your sweetheart like it, that's all that counts. Chili is versatile and if yours doesn't meet your standards, it's a pretty easy fix.<br /><br />My neighbor threw a bunch of sweet green peppers in hers and totally changed the taste! It was good in it's own way. lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8176495290528788226.post-52037299362146258612013-08-27T06:34:32.695-05:002013-08-27T06:34:32.695-05:00Thanks becky Thanks becky Modern Day Redneckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17682843961510053146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8176495290528788226.post-86815480854469754462013-08-27T06:33:56.906-05:002013-08-27T06:33:56.906-05:00Thanks Sandy,

Thanks for the invite to Durant my friend. I'm must let you know we won't be able to make it due to prior commitments.

This year I changed up how and what I do to my chili to see if I can come up in the ranks a little. <br />Thanks for the comment LJ.

Too cute! My niece totally won the <b>USA Midwest Chili Cookoff</b>. Honest! And, I never even asked for her recipe. Why? Because everyone things they truly make THE BEST chili anyway. When mine gets hotter than I expected, I put 1/2 teaspoon of cocoa powder in it to sweeten the burn. lollotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.com
