WINNING!

Posted on October 17, 2011October 11, 2020 by Jacky Hackett

Saturday was the block’s annual Blocktoberfest, the weather was absolutely perfect.  Two constants at our block party are the tie-dye and the chili contest.  Both were stellar this year…

The chili competition was tough this year, they were all so good it was hard to vote for only three.  I entered with Biz’s Best Buffalo Chicken Chili recipe.  The recipe is perfect as is, I used the buffalo style Frank’s wing sauce and added some buffalo Tabasco too.

It was a winner, 2nd place!  I made a double batch since I was asked to enter a chili in the Fall Fest on Sunday.  It took 3rd, winning!  Well not really though becuase it all got eaten and I did not keep any for myself.  I am going to have to make another batch soon.  Like this weekend.

    Winning! Love it – my sisters co-worker won 1st place at a chili cook off – I agree, its so easy and good – especially when I use frito dippers to scoop it up!

    Lucky, where did you find the buffalo tabasco??

      I can’t wait to make it again! I “got” the Tabasco from a restaurant near our house. 🙂

    I meant that my sisters co-worker made my same chili to win, wasn’t sure if that was clear!
