2009 Chili Cook Off

Another premier annual event - the Chili-Cook-off - was again a popular venue for our yacht club chefs! Hosted by last year's winners, Norm and Jan Gustafson, the event was held at the Brinnon Community Center. The Brinnon Fire Department were invited to be the judges of what constituted 'fiery and flavorful fare.'

There were also some great side dishes to complement the spicy chili offerings.

Eric Buch took first place this year and earned his name on the Chili Pot. John Christensen, with an ambitious TWO entries, took second and third. Commodore Jon Adkins presented the winners and runners-up with prizes.

Afterwards everyone helped clean up the center and adjourned to the marina restaurant for post libations and the official presentation of the Chili Pot to the winner.

As this year's winner, Eric will take on the host duties for the 2010 Chili Cook-off - see you there!
