Bob Dyer – from Canyon Lake, CA - is no stranger to earning top marks at the WCCC. He’s won the second-place award for red chili three times, and in 2003 alone he advanced to the Final Table in all three WCCC categories: Traditional Red, Chili Verde and Salsa. Bob and his wife Ellen competed up and down the CA coast to qualify and cook in all three of those categories in 2003, cooking in 35 ICS competitions that year!
