What’s happening:
The Asphalt Cowboys present their 4th annual “Cowboy Chili {with or without Beans!} Cook-off”. This is a fun event, and is not a sanctioned “Chili Cook-off.” Best chili regardless wins!
We will be holding the cook off on Wednesday night of Rodeo Week as part of our Buckaroo Flats Night, which also includes our Street Dance {at 8:00 pm} and Fast Draw Contest {at 6:00 pm}.
The Asphalt Cowboys would like to invite you to enter a team in our Chili Cook-off. This should be a fun event with lots of folks in Buckaroo Flats for chili tasting, fast draw action and some foot stomping dancing.
To enter the chili cook-off you must register and pay a $20.00 entry fee (entry form below). Entries are due in to us by Friday, May 8th, 2009. Entry Rules are included on the next page.
The Asphalt Cowboys will provide tables for your “cook site.” You will need to provide the rest of your equipment. The Asphalt Cowboys will provide tasting cups & spoons and containers for “votes” to be placed in. This is a “prepared” chili event, so there is no “cooking” at the event. Bring your entry already prepared and ready for tasting.
Access to the “cook sites” will be Auditorium Drive at the Asphalt Cowboys’ Clubhouse {next to the Rodeo Grounds}. Between 4pm and 5:30pm, you will be able to walk in to the cook site – bring yorself a little wagin or cart - and unload. We ask that you set up early if you can - so that we can keep the “cook sites” from getting too dang hecktick.
Costumes, musical instruments, singing, and dancing are encouraged by the Cowboys. We also encourage fun entry names, like: “The Four Alarm Fire - Chili Brigade” or “Shasta Sam’s Old Miner’s Special,” etc. This is a fun event, so fun is encouraged. Just remember, we are gathered around the “camp fire” at Buckaroo Flats so there is no electricity. |
