And we were there.
Our friends, Bob and Julie, had gotten together with some of their friends and actually participated in the chili cook-off. Like, they actually made chili.
Their setup: Named after Bob/Julie's dog Foster.
We just wanted to eat chili.
With cracker and beer!
Ended up deciding to get there a little early to see if Bob and Julie needed any help. So glad we did because we ended up getting hungry and trying a lot of the different types of chili right when things started at noon.
Because at like 1:30 pm, it was packed. And then people started running out of chili (they had to make at least 3 gallons of the stuff). We had tried about 80% of them by then. Phew. And the line to get it was long.
But it was good. And we ate a lot of chili. Bob and Julie's was tasty - very spicy. I also tried three with buffalo meat and two with venison. My favorite was one that added salsa to the chili. Kind of tasted like Sloppy Joes.
(Man, now I want a sloppy joe).
Our buddy Al came by in time to try maybe eight or so of the different chili concoctions (we tried about30-35). Diana and Goestov came a bit later than he and tried maybe 5 or so.
And then it started raining and we left.
Full to the brink of chili (and beer/wine).
