Jeff & Lisa's Great Chili Cook Off Poem

Jeff & Lisa’s Great Chili Cook Off Poem

 

At Jeff & Lisa’s Annual Chili Cook off of Scottsdale, Arizona

The whole city was gathered – friends like Aaron & Sara, Steffi, Cheryl, and Jonah

to see who would win the prize and be given a crown

of Chili Bean King or Queen of Scottsdale town

 

Now, Shari is stunning and full of grace

Will her chili qualify for first place?

She stood by her crock-pot with classy style

and told everyone trying it was worthwhile.

 

The others brought their chilis and expected the worst:

that Shari’s chili would will awarded as first

They all hoped for, to be the chili preferred

instead of coming in second or even third.

 

A wonderful aroma filled the house 

and anxious they all were, even the supporting spouse

Walked in a lady, very new to the town

Eyes blue as the sky and hair of rich brown

 

She carried a crockpot that gurgled and bubbled

and gave us all a glance, looking shy and troubled

Her coat was unraveled, fuzzy and shaggy

Her apron was stained and her pants were baggy.

 

She put down her crock-pot on Jeff & Lisa’s table

and quickly wrote her chili name on the label

She smoothed out her hair and realized it was already 2

and pulled out a spoon she kept in her shoe

 

The people were all there and gave each chili a try

The first was so spicy, it made some people cry

They sniffled and moved on to the next chili stew

Excited to see what was in pot number two

 

Pots three, four and five were each greeted the same

The people hurried on just as quick as they came.

But onto pot six and it looked quite nutritious

And to their surprise it was quite delicious

 

Lisa gathered up all the votes

Jeff counted them, then cleared his throat

He made the announcement for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners

And, in the end everyone was glad their tummies were full from a spectacular chili dinner!!

 

Now… that you have read some of our fine poetry skills, I wanted to ask….

 

Have you decided what chili you will be making for our chili cook off party?

Don’t forget! Party kicks off some heat at 1pm on Sunday, October 19th.

 

Lisa found us a great recipe called Dragon’s Breath.  Remember to name your chili too.

We will have all the toppings… sour cream, cheese, etc… and bowls/spoons of course!

Some people will opt out of making chili and will be making or bringing corn bread or desserts.

And, to the best chili… or chilis…. we have PRIZES … thanks to our fantastic sponsors:

Ali Coley and Brandy Kirby, Clear Title

Linda Hall, OnQFinancial
