Chili

Episode: CCUTA-113H




There's no meal as filling as a bowl of Texas red-chili, that is. Jeffrey Saad hits the trail in search of the best of this cowboy classic, learning at the feet of a two-time chili champion how to keep it real and do it right. Not that red is the only color-in Santa Fe he'll find classic green chili, in Los Angeles a white chicken chili...and even a yellow version, spiked with mangos and bananas. Finally, we'll hit a Himalayan restaurant to try a border-bending meaty chili that proves the old adage: Once you go yak, you never go back!






From Patsy Childress:
Check out this BBQ and Chili Cookoff scheduled for next weekend, March 24.  The weather shold be great and there should be lots of fun!   This cookoff is on Advertising Probation!
A Reminder from Ruby Ross:
Anyone with reservations at Best Western in Johnson City, when you check in be sure they know you are with the cookoff and CASI. Per Stacey your room should be $89.95.


From Carrie Kinnison:
HOWDY-ROO is just around the corner in Beautiful Marble Falls, Texas which attracts many tourists year round. The Highland Lakes Pod wants you to put the 41st Annual "HOWDY-ROO" Regional CCO on your list to attend. RV's are welcomed! NO HOOKUPS and please do not park in the park before Wednesday May 2nd.
