For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know how true this is. They actually have a Chili Cook-off about the time the Rodeo comes to town. It takes up a major portion of the parking lot at the Astrodome

Those of us who actually live in Texas, and have actually stood in sleet, in rain, and in sweltering heat, all in the same weekend, in the parking lot of the Astrodome and now Reliant Stadium, know that there is NO chili contest. It is a BBQ Contest - ribs, brisket, and chicken.

Come in from SC next March, and I'll introduce you.
