HUDSON VALLEY REGIONAL COOKOFF RESULTS
October 8, 2011
It was a beautiful fall day in Kingston, NY with sun, blue skies and warm temperatures. A great day for looking at all the Harleys on display at Woodstock Harley-Davidson while sampling chili. The bikers always enjoy seeing the chili cooks set up in the parking lot and are very happy to try any People’s Choice chili that is available. There were two rookie cooks this year, and we hope to see them more often in the coming season.
And the winners:
People’s Choice
Marc Frechette, Dragon Fire Family
Best Booth
Cindy Lovell, Chili’n by the Lake
