Whinchendon Chili Cook Off, Saturday, August 7th.

Chili is my favorite sustenance of all sustenances. Heck, I'd eat it for breakfast if only...

Yup folks, summer is rapidly approaching Massachusetts and I'll bet your taste buds are in need of a hefty jolt of Tabasco and sizzlin chili peppers, a cold beer, and lots of sunshine. The weather forecast sounds like it'll be accommodating - in the 70's!

Fanfare!!! It's the summer event you've all been waiting for folks, the umpteenth annual Winchendon Chili Cook-Off.

I'm entering the competition again. The all important question is, who will garner the honor for best Chili this year? I say, who cares. It's all about being outdoors, carousing, and drinking cold beer! Good thing I booked a taxi weeks ago.

Unfortunately my contribution, the world famous Willy's Wonder Chili (a real crowd pleaser if ever there was one) won't be entered in this years' competition. Seems my secret ingredient (peyote buttons) is no longer a secret. The DEA is on to me. But fear not Wusta, I spent the past 8 months  perfecting the latest recipe. Can't say much now, the competition is everywhere.

For you chili aficionados out there, here's an interesting link: Dick's Chili World and the International Chili Society - I'm a dues paying member ya know - I take this stuff pretty seriously.

So, make it up to Winchendon on Saturday, August 7th, folks and see ya ole buddy do some magic.

Chili and beer - Food of the Gods!
