NEXT UP!
2012 PEPPERS AT THE BEACH!
THIS WEEKEND!
MAY 18-MAY 20, 2012
Here we go again. About 3 years ago, I approached Chip Hearn of Peppers with a brainchild. How about a FREE event for vendors, where the theme is one great big tailgate party? It would be a great way for smaller companies to get their products into the mouths of the public, and at the same time, get people into your store. Chip agreed, and the brain child became a brain toddler. We had about a dozen vendors the 1st year, then it became a brain adolescent, when we had a couple dozen vendors show up for the tailgate party. This year, this has officially become a brain adult. Over 70 vendors are expected at this FREE event. Come down and sample the wares of TONS of manufacturers, for FREE! Meet the people who make your favorite foods, and hang with the Chilehead Legions! There really isn't a downside here.
IT'S ONE BIG TAILGATE PARTY!
Here are some shots from last year:

We'd like to thank Mike & Kat Freedman for another awesome weekend at the 2012 New England Regional Chili Cook-off, in Somers, CT. It was a great turnout both days, and the weather completely cooperated (with the exception of a little wind). We completely sold out of wings, mainly because people there know you can't better ones.
Here's a couple quick shots before the event gates opened, as we weren't able to get out of the booth much once the public descended upon us.
And of course, the NERCC event wouldn't be complete without a nice little Defcon Wing-Eating Deathmatch.
See everyone next year!
-----------------------------------
We just updated our 2012 Schedule of Events,
to see where we will be showing up. We will be adding numerous more dates as time goes on, so check back every now and then.

-----------------------------------
We had a great time at Zest Fest 2012, as if anything else was expected. It was the first time we didn't enter any products into the Golden Chile Awards, preferring to be able to sit back and relax during the awards ceremony. I'm glad we did, the lack of pressure was awesome.
Anyway, it was a great turnout, and we look forward to doing it all over again next year. Thanks to the many thousands that showed up for the show!
I'll tell you what, THIS is what makes this industry so much fun to be a part of...It's one big family!
-----------------------------------
We had a blast at the 2011 Weekend of Fire at Jungle Jims in Fairfield, Ohio this past weekend. The crowd was great, and the chileheads showed up en masse. Looking forward to doing it all over again next year.
And without further delay, here is the 2011 National Championship Defcon Wing-Eating Deathmatch. Mark Ennis took the trophy home this year, congratulations!

Also, as an honorable mention. One of our Homunculi found its way home during the show. She has been traveling the world for at least 4 years.

A FEW OF OUR LATEST INCARNATION OF ZERO SLUDGE ARE AVAILABLE!!!
That's correct, we have a limited number of our latest version of our ZERO Sludge available. This is by far the hottest version we have created yet, and are happy to have it available to you!
-----------------------------------
The 1st Annual Easton, PA Chile Pepper Festival was a great time, and will be added to our calendar from now on. I would highly suggest others put it on their 'to-do' list as well. The show is run by a bunch of great people, and they have numerous special festivals during the year.
----------------------------------
We had an awesome time at the Bowers, PA 16th Annual Chile Pepper Festival. It is officially on our "events to do" list for the future. The turnout was tremendous, as were the sales. I find this show to be a true "Gem in the woods" and would highly suggest anyone with a passion for spicy food, put it on their calendar for next year!
I wish I was able to take more pictures from the show, but to be honest, as soon as the gates opened to the public, I never got a chance to get out of the booth!
---------------------------------
The 5th Annual Wingfest at Duff's Brooklyn was a hit yet again. We'd like to thank the masses of metalheads for a great time, and a personal shout out to Jimmy Duff, the head dude. We're looking forward to doing again next year, same bat-time, same bat-channel!
Duff and The Creator...

The 2011 NOLA Show in New Orleans was a ton of fun! We'd like to thank everyone for coming out. The first ever DEFCON Frog Leg Eating Deathmatch was a hit as well. Congratulations to Craig Henley for the win.

We also released our first collector bottle in a few years, The 2011 NOLA Zero.
Oh yeah, and Santa was happy to finally meet his nemesis from the Darkside!
