Chilly Texas Open Championship Cookoff

160 chili cooks and show teams brave the cold San Antonio weather to compete in the Texas Open Chili Championship at Trader's Village.

Wendell Rankin had no idea the weather was going to match the scene on the 1st Place Showmanship Stove!

Bill Lester from Garland will win 1st Place in Showmanship with his talented show crew!

Ok, it's cold! Where's the chili? The final table judges are going to decide who has the best chili.

Bill Lester wins 1st Place Show and Jessie Waguespack of Austin is the 2015 Texas Open Chili Champion! Congratulations Jessie and all the Top Winners!

Boomer with the 2nd Place Winner, Karen Goains! Thanks to the Texas Open Committee for the hospitality and a cold, but fun, cookoff!
