2018 -Chuck’s Outlaw Verde
byChuck McCrory
“Texas Chuck” started cooking chili and competing in 2008, but didn’t get serious about it in 2013. He cooked his first pot of Chili Verde at a competition in Terlingua, Texas - using Mild Bills Spices! He has been hooked ever since that competition and has really enjoyed getting to know other cooks and forming great friendships along the chili trail.
