The American Independence Day Picnic and BigChilli Cook-Off

A FUN day out for the whole family is guaranteed at the annual American Independence Day Picnic. Held Saturday July 4 at KIS International School, the event will feature laugh-out-loud activities such as tug of war, egg toss, and pie eating contests, as well as live music, and a hunger-busting range of American food and drinks. 

A highlight of the event for foodies is the BigChilli Cook Off – a competition to find Bangkok’s best American-style chilli.  

Now in its eighth year, the event is organized by the I-Day committee which, having judged and cooked in Chili Appreciation Society international events, certainly knows its stuff.
The event is open to anyone who believes they have the best chilli in Bangkok. What makes the event so fun is the People’s Choice Awards going to the chilli receiving the most votes from the public.

But if you’re a serious chilli head looking to secure the votes of the official (and independent) judges, and want to trump the sterling efforts cooked up by last year’s winners, BBQ Sandwich King, US Taxman, and Roadhouse Barbecue, you may want to consider the following judging criteria:

1. Aroma: Your chilli should smell gooooood.  

2. Consistency: A good balance of meat and gravy. The meat should be tender, but not mushy. 

3. Colour: The Chilli should look good and the colour should range from reddish to reddish brown. Shades of “gray, black, pink, or camouflage” are unappealing, as is excess grease. 

4. Taste: Judges believe that an excellent tasting chilli will always stand out. 

5. Aftertaste: Chilli should leave a pleasant taste. A chilli pepper “afterbite” is permitted, but the degree of heat is a matter of personal preference. 

Think you have the recipe and cooking skills to take part? Contact Dana Edward Caron, “Head Chilli Head,” at 081 837 6855 or email: [email protected]. Entry to the Cook-Off is a B500 donation.
