PORK for CHILI VERDE

Hello, Chili Friends,

We enjoyed seeing our many chili friends at the World's Championship Chili Cookoff this last weekend. Congratulations to all of you. Even if you didn't win or place, it is an accomplishment just to have qualified to compete. Many very good cooks did not qualify.

Now that the new chili year is beginning, we have some news on the chili verde front. Those of you who have been using the Kirkland pork sirloins from Costco for your chili verde meat probably know by know that Costco has discontinued carrying these. The good news is that chilihead Eddie LaCross in Arizona has procured six cases of this product by special order. Each case contains eight three-packs, and Eddie will sell either a half case or a whole case. There is only one case available. The cost is the same that it has always been, around $13.00 per three-pack. Eddie will deliver your product to the River Resorts Regional Cookoff on November 17th. He is not prepared to ship orders. Bring a cooler and ice or dry ice to keep the pork frozen until you get it home. Eddie's Phone Number is 623-486-4153

.

Happy cooking in the 2008 chili year.
