Chili is a Texas treasure and cooking
good chili is a Texas art form
today, dozens gathered in Cowtown to
display their works of art.
Of course, atmosphere is a necessity.
A chili cook off.
And politicians are must.
At stake here are the bragging rights for
the best chili in Fort Worth.
What's your what's your secret
ingredient? It's a secret.
I mean, even if I gave you the secret
ingredient, we wouldn't win every year.
Time after time.
So it's all we have to keep it a secret.
Now, we'll let you taste it if
you pay for it.
And it's a bit for a good cause.
But this is the reason our beautiful
women stood. Cannot fight for.
No question about it.
Not even from the Channel 5 cooks
themselves. Right?
Right. And station manager Frank O'Neil
felt the team to watch should stick
to television.
We've almost got almost determined that
this is edible,
but I don't think it looks absolutely
this recipe.
Brad Franks,
there were serious chili cooks here, but
with all the tomfoolery, it was sometimes
hard to tell who was real and who was
full of chili powder.
