Reports From A Texas Chili Cookoff

*Notes from an inexperienced chili taster named "Frank" who was visiting Texas from the East Coast.

"Recently I was honored to be selected as an outstanding famous celebrity in Texas to be a judge at a chili cook-off, because no one else wanted to do it. Also the original person called in at the last moment, and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking directions to the beer wagon when the call came. I was assured by the other two judges (native texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy, and besides they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted."

*Here are the scorecards from the event....

Chili #1: Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili

JUDGE ONE: A little too heavy on tomato. Amusing kick.

JUDGE TWO: Nice smooth tomato flavor. Very Mild.

FRANK: Holy ****, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway with it. Took me two beers to put the flames out. Hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

Chile #2: Arthur's Afterburner Chili

JUDGE ONE: Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

JUDGE TWO: Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.

FRANK: Keep this out of reach of children! I'm not sure what I am supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the heimlich maneuver. They had to walkie-talkie in 3 extra beers when they saw the look on my face.

Chile #3: Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili

JUDGE ONE: Excellent firehouse chili! Great kick. Needs more beans.

JUDGE TWO: A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of red peppers.

FRANK: Call the EPA, I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front of my chest. I'm getting s***-faced.

Chili #4: Bubba's Black Magic

JUDGE ONE: Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.

JUDGE TWO: Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.

FRANK: I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Sally the barmaid was standing behind me with fresh refills, that 300 lb. b**** is starting to look HOT, just like all this nuclear-waste I'm eating.

Chili #5: Linda's Legal Lip Remover

JUDGE ONE: Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.

JUDGE TWO: Chile using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.

FRANK: My ears are ringing, and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from a pitcher. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked my to stop screaming to h*** with those rednecks!

Chili #6: Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety

JUDGE ONE: Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spice and peppers.

JUDGE TWO: The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions and garlic. Superb.

FRANK: My intestines are now a straight pipe fill with gaseous, sulfuric flames. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that tramp Sally. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone!

Chili #7 Susan's Screaming Sensation Chili

JUDGE ONE: A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.

JUDGE TWO: Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. I should note that I am worried about Judge #3. He appeears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.

FRANK: You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with the chili which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava-like s*** to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painfull. I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the four inch hole in my stomach.

Chile #8: Helen's Mount Saint Chili

JUDGE ONE: A perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili, safe for all, not too bold, but spicy enough to declare it's existence.

JUDGE TWO: The final entry is a good, balanced chili, neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 passed out, fell and pulled the chili pot on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor Yank.

FRANK: -------- (editor's note. Judge #3 was unable to report).
