This year we are returning to Rebel's old stomping grounds in McDonough for a fun afternoon of Food and Storytelling!! 

Hopefully all of the perennial favorites will come out along with some newbies to give them a great challenge!

The GGA February 2011 Meeting will be held on Saturday February 12th from 2:00 PM until 4:00 PM at the Henry County Public Safety Building Room 116

 Break out your recipes and come hungry for the Chili Cook Off!

The 2009 winners and the winning presentation.

The Great Trophies!!

Bring your best chili effort to the meeting and share your culinary talents. The judges have been primed and bribed, err, we mean prepared and the chili will be tasty!
Of course your entry will be judged for the opportunity to take the ‘GOLD’.

Please bring your chili ready to eat, or close to it. Contestants will need to bring a chili serving utensil. Bowls, eating utensils, cheese and saltine crackers will be provided. Electrical outlets will be provided for chili pots. Entrants are asked to check in early so that they can be given an entry code to protect their identity. Chili check in will start at 1:45 pm and end at 2:15 pm.
The judges will NOT know who brought what entry, they will be isolated during the check in process.

Entrants will be provided with a small card to list any unique ingredients.
Ingredients such as, but not limited to: peanuts, chocolate, shellfish, seafood, honey, MSG, etc.
This is for the safety of those with specific food allergies.

We will again be having a Alternative Chili Catagory. This will be chili's that are not traditional red. Traditional red chili is defined as any combination of meats,cooked with red chili peppers, various spices and other ingredients. Some ideas for alternative chili are white, vegetarian, verde or anything you can think of. If a contestant bringing an alternative chili would prefer to compete in the traditional category that is allowed. A traditional chili as described above many not compete in the alternative category.

There will be a category voted on by all attendees:- - BEST PRESENTATION - -

Please arrive early enough to have your presentation area ready no later 2:15 pm.
The attendees will be allowed to start voting at that time.
If your presentation needs electricity please bring an extension cord or power bar.
