Feast Your Eyes on This Spicy Cooking Challenge 2012: Round 6
A big thanks to Heartbreaking Dawns for their contribution to Round 5, as they will ship the winner a $50 cash card and an assortment of HBD’s finest curiosities. Please check out their new product line Bell River Brand Sauces…The Anytime Sauce! Everyone can use the code “feast” thru April 30th for 25% off anything they like from the Heartbreaking Dawns’ website.
Round 6 is brought to by Gunther’s Gourmet Gala. Not just an event to attend, but a collaboration of small businesses sharing their wholesale and retail customers with each other in a laid back friendly atmosphere. Vendors of all kinds attend, and not just spicy products. There is something for every taste, and Michael Lampros who is our guest judge this week, and the man behind Gunther’s Gourmet Gala makes sure everyone leaves with a full belly full of FREE wings and complimentary liquid refreshment to put a smile on everyone’s face. It is held at the Gunther’s Gourmet Castle in Richmond, Virginia on May 5th. If you are on the East Coast & not too far off, you can contact Michael at 804-240-1796 or email him at ch******@gu*************.com for details. Chileheads, vendors and buyers are all welcome to attend, but it is a private invite first event. I look forward to see you all there, along with the Schobergs who will be making this their first attended chilehead event.

Once again I am sorry for the unedited version of this video, but my computer will not let me do much right now. I need to get it fixed. On with the competition…
NOTE: VIDEOS FOR ROUND 6: UP TO 12 MINUTES
Buddah, Chris didn’t make rabbit, he made pheasant….Jeff made rabbit.
I said Chris? My bad. Sorry about that. After 5 takes I barely know what I said.
Congrats on the 3 way tie!
My favorite kabob of all was Shauna’s Bison Wellington…I am going to make that! What a cool idea!
Alright, Annabelle and I are adding $50 to the 2nd place winner.
Thank you very much Tom. I appreciate Annabelle and your donation to the cooking challenge. It is very thoughtful.
I had a great time participating, made some amazing spicy dishes and brought alot of our fans along for the ride. Shauna, Chris and Steve are amazing competitors and it will surely be a great finish – congrats to all of you. Thanks for the opportunity Buddah and thanks to the judges for their time. In the end, for me the editing was brutal and became my achiles heal – loved the cooking and creativity, hated the editing. Cheers!
You did a great job Jeff. Thank you so much for being a part of it.
I forget to mention in the video that there is no bonus going into the last round, just the $50 cash card prize from the Gunther’s Gourmet Gala.
It looks like I got my editing woes behind me. The video as it should have appeared has replaced the old one. Same results though.
