Annual chili cook-off -- Album 1

 [Click on photos below to enlarge.]

This year's chili cook-off was bigger than ever. In all nine contestants plus five celebrity chili chefs made for a Knights of Columbus pavilion full of great smells and good eats.

Chairman Doug DeMay used 13 judges this year to help decide the best chili. All samples were given numbers, with the judges not knowing whose sample belonged to which chef.

The pavilion was busy all morning.

All the chili looked and smelled inviting.

 

Thirteen judges this year made for a reliable result.

So many chilis to choose from, so little time.

Not everyone wants their picture taken.
