Chili Cook Off
Our Chili Cook Off was a huge success! We had 12 entries and all were delicious. Dennis Agajanian and his friends were our judges and they had a very hard job coming up with just one favorite! After much deliberation and tasting again and again, they chose "Chili by Dee", entered by Dianna Lowe. She was gracious enough to share with us her recipe!
Here is my recipe:
Brown 2 pounds lean ground beef. Drain
