Wow. Absolutely amazing. Is it really that time again? Hold on, I’ve got my calendar right here. Yep. There it is. We are only a few days away from this years Weekend of Fire at Jungle Jim’s in Cincinnati, Ohio.
I thought I’d do a quick little post informing those who are not in the know [...]

Continuing from part 2, we now come to the final installment of my 3 part coverage of the first annual Peppers On The Beach. The bloggers and press were in full swing at this point. Interviewing, picture taking, and sampling was going on everywhere you looked.
The Spicy RV crew interviews King Chip, ruler of the [...]

Welcome to the second part of Passow’s coverage of this years Peppers On The Beach. When last we left our Mutton Chopped reviewer, he and a few friends had gone to Dogfish Head Brewpub to recharge. Now we join them as they return to the event.
We returned to a much larger crowd than we had [...]

It was a dark and stormy Friday when I woke up at 4 in the morning on May 14, 2010. Thunder and lightning streaked the black sky and rain poured down at a 45 degree angle. By the time I left at 5:20AM, the skies were starting to lift. Nature knew it could not stop [...]

With the main events at the North Market finally behind me, a bunch of us went over to Barley’s Brewery and then to Gordon Biersch for some freshly brewed beers, and girly drinks for Eric and Buddah.

Being disappointed that no one had a “reversal”, it was on to their next best bet…The Wing Eating Competition! The fools…err…contestants signed up and took their places around the center area. I was amazed how many people signed [...]

Where was I…oh yes! The Jalapeno eating contest! Some may say, “Jalapenos? That’s it?!? Those are easy peppers to eat, only around 6,000 SHU. Bring it on!” Well, first off, you have to eat 10 within 4 minutes, and while they are relatively mild peppers, eating one after the other will definitely get you burning. [...]

Time flies by so fast. It seems just like yesterday that I covered the previous year’s event. But alas, a year later, and time again to cover the events of the North Market’s 2010 Fiery Foods Festival in Columbus, Ohio! The car, Ol’ Blue, was packed, the business cards stuffed in my wallet, and new [...]

It looks like we have a new chilehead event for you to place on your events calendars. We have made the trek to Rehoboth and Dewey Beaches in Delaware when we lived in Maryland, and it’s worth the trip both for the scenery and the chance to visit the Peppers store. This event [...]
