    Hello Helen, Thank you for hosting the chili cook-off! I love our version of this favorite Fall food ("Real Good Chili"), but trying new variations is half the fun!

    I didn't see a "follower" gadget (?) so I subscribed via Feedburner. I'm not sure if that's okay...

    Hi Miz Helen :) I entered my moms chili mac. This recipe is at least 50 years old, and my family loves it. Looking forward to seeing all of the entries.

    Great contest. I submitted the Texas Chuck Wagon Brisket Chili. The chili has an excellent smoky flavor and makes a huge batch that is perfect for a party.

    I linked my first-ever pork chili, "Chili-Style Hotpot with Ground Pork". I loved this chili a lot and will prepare it again. Great event!

    How fun I should get to cooking my favorite chili. Would a hotdog chili recipe suffice?

    Um, I'm planning on making my first batch of chili of the season this week - harvest chili with chicken/apple sausage, apples and butternut squash. I'll be back to let you know how it goes. Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. Liz

    Hi Helen,

    Thanks for the invite!

    Chili is a staple at our house when the cold weather hits and Game Day Chili is one of the best versions I've come up with.

    Hi Miz Helen, This is so fun! I can't wait to peruse all of these fabulous chili recipes. I posted my tried-and-true crock pot chili recipe that I serve at parties with lots of toppings and hot dogs. I also included a healthier version that I now serve my family. Thanks for hosting!

    Hey Miz Helen!! I soooooo wish I could join this fun! I seriously have THE BEST chili recipe ever! It's my mama's and she's won SEVERAL chili cookoffs with it....but, as a result, it's a time-honored family secret so I can't share the recipe, only the chili itself. :-( But, instead I'm entering another tasty chili recipe....White Lightning Chunky Chicken Chili! Enjoy!

    Yay! I completely forgot you were having a Chili Cookoff. I've been so busy lately and haven't had a lot of time to visit my fav. bloggers, that will soon pass though once college football season is over. Anyway, all these Chili Recipes look fantastic! Thanks for hosting! :)
