And the Chili Cook-Off Winner is...

Leo, from Home Grown Cook, for his Black Bean Chile with Machaca Beef. Congratulations, Leo, your chili was voted the best this month. Please send me your snail mail so I can send you your prizes: a copy of my new cookbook, Foods and Flavors of San Antonio, and a chile pepper refrigerator magnet. In the meantime, here's your winner's badge which you can proudly display on your blog.

I think all the chili recipes that were submitted are winners and they're all going into a new chili cookbook I'm writing. Thanks, everyone, for your chili recipes.

We start all over again next month with our February Chili Cook-Off Challenge. The sign-
up will be posted tomorrow, so read the rules, then create your best original chili recipe and enter it in the cook-off.

I did like that one, was unusual! Congrats Winner...actually your all winners in my book!

Actually, the congrats belong to my co-blogger, Linda, who is the true author of the recipe (though I did make a few tasty suggestions ;-) and premier chef-ette in our household. Thanks, Linda, and thanks everybody! Both Linda and I are humbled and honored by your vote ;-) We haven't yet made it through trying all the other entries but since the winter appears to be with us for awhile, we think we'll have enough time to taste our way through them all (maybe not Kangaroo chili due to a lack of certain ingredients ;-)
