The Group Therapy Bar 2009 Chili Cook-off was held during the weekend. I got to judge the chili again, some good, some not so good. One of the treats at the cook-off was the Nuclear Meltdown Stuffed Chili Pepper. An Anaheim chili stuffed with Hot or Mild chili and cheese then lightly battered and deep fried to a golden brown. Not to be missed! Their Hot Chili was a real Nuclear Meltdown situation!!

A little local humor gets into the competition.

Oh that looks good! Is it lunch time yet? I'm hungry now. ..... :p
 
*Sigh*

I do love spicy food. The necessary legacy of a life spent in the military -- heat/spice to cover, well, a lot of stuff that needed covering.:)

Once again, a bizarre parallel in our lives appears. I too love spicy food, the spicier the better. I've eaten some strange things in strange places that, without the spices, would probably have been inedible.

I have some Indian friends and I've eaten some of their "normal" food. Your entire head starts sweating before the first forkfull is halway to your mouth. :)

Oh, yes. I too!

And some Caribbean friends of Indian extraction. That caused a few blisters in the mouth. Especially the seafood curries! They make these orange/yellow home-made salsas from those homely little roadside chiles in the islands -- Scotch Bonnets and Habaneros.

And some very kind tribal chaps in eastern Africa. They have these giant, one pot affairs that just get thicker and hotter as the week goes by. No chance whatsoever of any bacterial trouble as no bacteria could possibly survive in that pot!!:eek:

And of course, Southeast Asia. Need I say more?;)
