Denver Green Chili
$50 of quality organic meat ... free!
I recently started home delivery of high quality organic meat & frozen
foods - at the same cost as grocery store prices. I'm delighted with it - no
more hours of cutting the fat off of pork when making green chili. It's
already very, very lean. If you are interested in learning about it and
getting $50 of organic meat for free, just fill in the T&C contact form.

Gambler's Chili
2008 World Champion


Green chile season is almost here!
And chili cookoffs will be cropping up.
The next ICS (International Chili Society)
sanctioned cookoffs are in Winter Park
on August 22 - 23. I judge these every
year. Interested in entering your special
recipe? Interested in judging? Go to the
ICS Colorado Cookoff page for registering.

Never entered before? You might try this
World Champion Green Chili recipe from
2008 to see what they look for. It is typical
of the winners - medium hot, thick, very
meaty. There is relatively little variation
between winners.

When I made this, I used Safeway's brand
of green chile salsa - it's one of my favorites.
I also used fresh cilantro insted of dried.

You can buy green chile powder at
The Chili Guys at 55th & Federal, 303-455-4030.
Even if you leave the green chile powder out,
you'll find this recipe is very good.

So far, my favorite of all the World Champion
recipes (with respect to easiest & really good)
is the 2006 World Champion.
