=== Feedback === | |||
* Only served ~2.25 crocks worth of chili, could probably get away with 2 in the future | |||
* Wear gloves when chopping jalapenos | |||
* People liked having a mild chili they could customize to their level of spice with jalapenos. Also bring red pepper flakes next time? | |||
* Thaw onions and peppers beforehand, took a significant amount of time to thaw before they could be sauted | |||
** Possibly also saute beforehand | |||
* Blacksburg Community kitchen is pretty small and not super well equipped, was suitable but a personal kitchen would work just as well | |||
* Chili seemed generally well received at competition, did not place in top 3 | |||
* May have added too much coffee and chocolate, there was a very bitter aftertaste | |||
* Some people said it didn't seem very meaty; finer diced stew meat or more ground beef? | |||
