Need help naming GOP chili!!! |
|
OK--every year I do a chili cook off for the local Dem party. Last year we took first place in the people's choice category thanks to suggested improvements from the cooks here at DU.
In the past it has always been for just a couple of candidates that I was working for at the time. This year, it will be for the entire Dem slate, so it needs to be a bit more showy... We've done flaming chili (tied for second place) and last year it was simply two candidates' names on the entry--but it was really kick ass chili!.
I have always done a classic meat chili, but I also threw together a meat free chili one year because there were NO veg entries at all. It was a fine concoction of Portabellas, a few other kinds of mushrooms and beans in a tomato sauce. I expect to do something like that again this year. However, since it is for the ENTIRE Dem slate, I want to do something to smack around the GOP.
I'm thinking Mule Kick Chili (with meat) Sustainable Chili (meat free) and something like water and a slice of day old white bread bread for the "Compassionate Conservative Chilli." Somehow, none of those names really excite me, however.
Suggestions from the Evil DUers would be greatly appreciated. WHAT creative names should I use for these entries?

But also get another pot and put in a can of beans (unopened), a tomato (unchopped), an onion (also unchopped), whatever spices you want (still in their packages/containers), etc.
Enter it as "Mission Accomplished" chilli. Tell anyone who doesn't like this chilli that he or she is supporting the terrorists.

6. Got an idea for the GOP chili |
|
you can call it Crazy Zell's carnivore chili, and it'll be equal parts raw meat and pigs blood, garnished with shredded pages from one of ann coulter's books. They're both about the same distance from what is considered sane.

7. Republican Flaming A$$hole chili |

Make it as spicy as absolutely possible. No meat and beans either-nothing sustaining.

10. Oh my! You guys are on it--and THANK YOU!!! |
|
I'm LMAO here--and that is exactly what I was hoping for!
Ya know--I'm wondering if maybe I need to make up a list of "GOP Chili" suggestions and put THAT out... Hubby just suggested an empty cup with one little chili cracker in it calling it Enron chili...

It sounds like you have it together, but if you're interested in vegetarian chilis, you should check out Robin Robertson's The Vegetarian Chili Cookbook. It has all sorts of traditional and non-traditional recipes, including variations on regional chilis, chilis made with unusual ingredients like tequila and chocolate, and even dishes to make with the leftovers.
This sounds like a really fun event!
