Recently, I had the privilege of being chosen as a judge at a chili cook-off.

Judge #2 — Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.

Judge #3 (Frank) — Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that’s the worst one. These New Mexicans are crazy.

CHILI #2 – EL RANCHO’S AFTERBURNER CHILI

Judge #1 — Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

Judge #2 — Exciting BBQflavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.

Judge #3 — Keep this out of the reach of children. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.

CHILI #3 – ALFREDO’S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI

Judge #1 — Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick.
