    Julie,

    Great series of pictures!

    Congrats to Egret for producing, what looks like from the vote, an outstanding chili.

    Judging from all of the previous posts Ocala was a success and the throwdown was worthy of all the buildup we enjoyed over the weeks. Wonder what looms for the Texasfest?

    what?!?!?! people knew who they were voting for? heck, i wouldn't have voted for sundown either if i knew that. hahaha :whistle:

    but he might have had a chance if it was a blind taste-test/vote. egret is way too nice to vote against.

    carey is a great guy, too, but he may have gotten some backlash from his trash talking. he shouldn't be penalized just for being a blowhard. :evil:
