Hola all, we have updated the Mexican National Chili Cook Off website for next years event and added a whole bunch more information. I would appreciate it if you could take a look at it, review each page for errors or omissions and offer any constructive feedback. We are making some huge changes for next years event that you will read about on the site

The website can be found at: http://www.mexicannationalchilicookoff.com/

Hi Bob, the site suggest (to me) that everyone can taste all of the entries. Is that true?

We went the first two years we were here and were very disappointed that we didn't get to eat chili. We moved to Texas in the late 1980's and enjoyed attending chili cook offs because we got to sample lots and lots of chili. We haven't been back to the local one because we hate to smell the chili but not get to eat it--at all or without standing in a long line.

If chili is not readily available for everyone, maybe you could talk a couple of the commercial entrants into selling chili.

Hola Luisa,

Yes, everyone can taste all the entries of both the chili and the margarita's. Both competitions are awarded by peoples votes. We will do our best to ensure there are no long line-ups.

We are also looking at having more chili available at our food kiosks.

Unless it has changed, all people testing quality pays a fee for participation.

Why not put sponsor prices and a form to fill out and payment method as well as photos of the stalls and measurements? This would save calls and enable sponsors to pay and reserve their areas.

At this point we would rather have all the sponsors and vendors talk with us directly since our layout will be entirely different next year. That could be a good suggestion for the following year once we have established the lay-out. Gracias.

Very well done! From an old tech writer. the site is clean, and easy to navigate, with good usability.

My only suggestion: sharpen up the map - I'd substitute black or a darker grey for the lettering and a brighter, darker yellow for the roads and make it a bit larger. Maybe make it expandable and printable for those who don't already know the location.
