Colorado Back 2 Backs
The Rocky Mountain Regional and Colorado State Championships are just around the corner on Aug. 11/12 on the ski slopes of Winter Park, Colorado. Winter Park is just an 90 minute shot from the airport and features a variety of lodging plus activities for the entire family. Past champions include many who have then gone on to "trophy" at the World's. Need to secure your spot in Omaha, then try Winter Park's B2B's.

Canadian Back 2 Backs
Alberta Championship and Western Candian Regional
Just a few days until our cookoffs and we still have room for a few more cooks. Wild Bill Torvi will again be on the deck as DJ for the two days of the cookoff. We are still having the Cooks party at our house on Friday night and will be cooking beef brisket and pork butt.
.
Because of the fact that some people were going to come and then won competitions in the meantime (lucky them!) or have other family and work commitments and cannot compete Randy and I have turned over the Head Judging and Score Keeping to George Glover and family. They are experienced and have judged and ran many local cookoffs for a number of years (Ranchmans, Can-Am, etc.). This will enable Randy and I to cook to ensure that we have enough cooks for all categories. We wanted to let the chili cooks network know ahead of time what was happening and to reassure everyone that things will be handled properly and above board. Now we just have to scramble and get meat cut.
.
So... if anyone still needs to qualify and wants to come on up and cook in a fun filled back to back please let us know.
Joy and Randy
