This will be brief. I have a hangover from driving. We drove 2000 miles in three days to get to the Massachusetts, cooked chili for a day, and then drove eight hours to Maryland. We’ll take a couple of days to visit family and recover before heading home.

We had a great time in Massachusetts. Everyone wanted to talk to the TICC Champ and get their pictures taken with her. Susan held up her part of the bargain by winning the cookoff. Mr. Susan

COOKOFF STORIES

“I went to Chicago several years ago, cooked cut meat, even cut the meat for Dana Plocheck, but took a little cayenne out, figuring Texas Chili would be too hot for the midwest taste buds. Winning chili was pretty hot, I placed 11th.” Roger Foltz
