Yesterday was the annual Chili Festival here in Petaluma, and after 2 years of winning top honors with our vegetarian chili, I thought it was only fair to go with the meat category this time. If vegetarian is good, then won’t it be better with meat? That was the working theory. But, sorry to say no. There is not only much more competition for the meat category, it's also a bit more of traditional taste. But look out, we’ll be there again next year. Thanks Cinnabar for all the hard work.
FYI: It was a Chili Verde with Slow Smoked Pulled Pork and Cilantro Crema. Very tasty, but didn't quite hit that Chili spot.

About Me
- Amber Balshaw
- I’ve been cooking as long as I can remember, professionally since I was 17. I love everything about food, and spent my life pursuing it. I was an apprentice pastry chef in Innsbruck Austria before I even went to cooking school. After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America I became a full fledged Pastry Chef for a high end country club, and love it as I did there was so much more to be done, which eventually led me to catering. My catering company is just what I want it to be; I get to do something different everyday either in the kitchen or helping a bride design her ideal wedding or just researching new recipes out of my own imagination.
