CLIFF MILLER WINS TRI-STATE OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP
AMARILLO, TX – The weekend of January 12th was a great one. We had two
cookoffs the, TALL IN TEXAS POD COOKOFF benefiting the Mavericks Girls and
Boys Club on Friday night and the TRI-STATE OPEN CHILI CHAMPIONSHIP on
Saturday benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation. They were both a success with 68
cooks for the Pod cookoff and 131 for the Open. We had cooks from Oklahoma, New
Mexico, and from several places in Texas. We had a band for our Cook’s Party and
Pod Cookoff Friday night and they were back again on Saturday; we also had a great
silent auction. What a family! Cole stole everyone’s heart.
The cookoff committee would like to thank all of the people that helped with both
cookoffs. We could not name them all in fear of leaving someone out so you know who
you are and we could not do it without you. A Big Thank You to All. Also, thank you to
the cooks for coming out to cook with us. So mark your calendar for next year’s cookoff
and come join the fun.
The top three winners of the Tri-State Open were automatic qualifiers to TICC.
They were:
1st Cliff Miller

Chili, Charity, Fun and Chattering Teeth. It is winter and acting like it in many parts of
the country. That makes it a great time to cook a bowl of red.
When you are in the store shopping for your cookoff items, think about the Casa Fiesta
fund raising program. Buy a few cans of beans and other items in the Casa Fiesta line. We
can eat our way to providing scholarships to even more high school graduates deserving of
a chance to get ahead in life.
Also, when you and your Pod are choosing a charity for your next cookoff, think about
the CASI Scholarship Program. We have 70 Pods in CASI and if each one raised just $500
each year at a cookoff, we could add $35,000 more into the Program. The Houston Area
Pods have hosted cookoffs and contributed $5,000 in recent years. During the last 4 years,
the Program has received $6,000 as the beneficiary of the Canyon Lake BBQ & Chili Cookoff. Let’s challenge
ourselves to support on own charitable cause during our fund raising choices. Between Bruce Foods and your
support, this would be a great year to raise enough money to not only increase the number of scholarships but to
consider increasing the amount to each student. The amount has stayed the same since inception of the program
and yet the cost of college has about doubled.
You are CASI! YOU can make things happen. Let’s put our focus in 2013 on making CASI a bigger and more
importantly better organization.

Reflections from the ED
This month, I would like to focus on the role our Regional Referees play in the CASI
organization. The CASI rules state that all cookoffs seeking CASI sanctioning must have
on site a CASI Regional Referee, CASI Area Referee, CASI Great Pepper, CASI official,
or an authorized CASI Representative.
A Regional Referee is responsible for all cookoffs in their assigned region; this is why it
is the responsibility of the cookoff chairman to contact the CASI Regional Referee
responsible for the location in which the cookoff is held. A list of Regional Referees can be
found on the CASI website. The Regional Referee will assign themself, an area referee, or
work with the CASI Executive Director to find a CASI representative to serve as the
referee for a cookoff. If the cookoff is in a region where there is not a CASI Regional
Referee assigned, then the CASI Executive Director can appoint a CASI representative for
the cookoff.
The cookoff referee plays a critical part in the cookoff being sanctioned and the cooks getting their points.
Referees are a consultant to the cookoff chairman and head judge and are there to observe the different functions
(cooks meeting, registration, chili turn in, chili judging, tallying, marking cups, announcements, etc.) and maintain the
integrity of the CASI rules at the cookoff. Some cookoff chairmen think it is the responsibility of the CASI
Referee to run the cookoff, but if this was the case it would be hard for a Referee to observe and be impartial in
any necessary rulings. It is the referee’s duty to observe and report in writing to CASI any and all infractions in
following all CASI rules.
After the cookoff, the Referee becomes the cookoff official that is the liaison with the CASI Tally Master to
insure that the cooks get their deserved points for their cooking efforts. The referee must sign the official CASI
Results sheet after winners are determined. They must in a timely fashion mail or fulfill the entry on the CASI
website of the results sheet, cook and showmanship entry list, and appropriate sanctioning fees. So the next time you
see a referee at a cookoff, shake their hand and thank them for their volunteer service to the CASI cooks and the
CASI organization.
I invite all CASI members to attend the Winter Meeting of the CASI Board of Directors which will consist of a
board workshop on Saturday, Feb 16, and a board meeting on Sunday, Feb 17. The meeting will be held at the
Irving Elks Lodge, Irving, Texas.
In closing, I would like to wish everyone a Happy Valentines Day and to leave a tip for anyone in New Orleans
during the Mardi Gras: If you’re standing watching a parade next to a bunch of old grandmothers dressed in high
heels and playboy outfits, do not think your chances of picking up beads thrown from a Mardi Gras float are any
better. They may be old, but they have fast feet…and the spikes on those heels….Ouch!!!!!

SPONSORSHIP REPORT
In the months that immediately follow TICC each year
there is a time for visiting CASI sponsors and surveying
them on information to help us better perform. As
chairman of the sponsorship group, CASI sponsors are
my clients. It is my job to represent their interests and
promote our support. We have a highly diverse group of
sponsors. Many have products that fit nicely into
everyday CASI routine and others are just there for us
financially. Many have support services instead of a
product that they put at our disposal. CASI members are
also sponsors. Obviously, you are not compensated for
your time. You only have the satisfaction of participating
in our success. No member should ever think that the
smallest act for CASI is not appreciated. We cannot impact our sponsors if we all
do not push for their brands and services. Remember that when you see them and
one of our events and give them a sincere “thanks” for believing in us. And please,
accept a sincere “thanks” from me for what each of you does for CASI.
The initial feedback I get from the 46th Terlingua International Chili
Championship is that it was a tremendous success. We had the highest
participation of sponsor representatives in our history. Banners, product samples,
personal appearances and financial underwriting were evident at every activity on
the grounds. Local officials, businesses, and citizens describe have told me that
they were very pleased with the event.
There are some areas of concern as befits any activity of this size. The
primary purpose of the CASI Winter Workshop is to review the pros and cons,
and set a course for the next year. Financials are presented and issues are
discussed while they are still fresh on the mind. The workshop is casual. It is an
open opportunity for the membership to give their input to the Board and CASI in
an informal setting. Duties are allocated for the year and the quest for TICC 47
February 2013
begins. The workshop is an opportunity for members and directors to bond
together for the common good of the organization. There is never enough time
during the year to adequately do this, so we need to make the most of our time. I
urge you to consider this opportunity to participate at ground level. Consider
yourself a leader and jump in. There is a great deal of satisfaction in moving us
forward. Every member has the ability to put their mark in our history book.
Thank you for your support!

thru a Great Pepper). My committee is in place and I
am sure that they are eagerly awaiting the arrival of
the applications.
I will be making the rounds of my high schools later
this week to pick up applications. I hope your Great Pepper is making the same
plans.
I am still looking for receipts of CASA Fiesta Products. Please get out

Cooking With CASI
Greetings!
Once again I would like to personally thank all of you
involved in organizing and conducting CASI sanctioned
cookoffs. Your hard work and dedication is greatly
appreciated and because of you CASI continues to bring on
new promoters, judges, cooks, and members.
We continue getting positive feedback regarding the
www.CASICHILI.net website and calendar. You can view
scheduled cookoffs and even click on a map directing you to
the location. If you have not yet been to the website, go
online and check it out.
If you have a Cookoff you would like to schedule for
April 2013 your cookoff must be submitted for approval no
later than February 15th. Thanks to all of you for planning early and getting your
cookoffs submitted. Also, if you are emailing information regarding an upcoming
cookoff, the email address is [email protected]
According to CASI Rules all CASI cookoffs must be advertised in the Terlingua
Trails before the cookoff takes place in order to be sanctioned. You run a risk of not
being sanctioned if you submit your cookoff for approval during the month before your
cookoff if it is after the 15th of the month.
And as we discussed in last month’s Trails, more and more Pods are printing their
own forms which is a convenience for you and saves CASI postage. A majority of the
Great Peppers took cup tickets for the year with them at the Great Peppers Meeting.
Once again, thanks to all of you who already have your cup tickets.
For those folks who do not have tickets and are expecting a packet the packets are
mailed out the first week of the previous month. This is due to an increasing number of
“lost packets” and duplicate requests. So do not be alarmed if you have submitted a
cookoff but have not received a packet. March Packets will be mailed the first week of
February, and so on. If you have an exception and need your tickets earlier feel free to
email a special request and we will get your packet in the mail earlier.
It is truly an honor and a privilege to serve as one of your Directors and best
wishes for a successful cookoff!

Free Quarter Page Ad
to CASI Pods, State, Regional and
International Opens
As a CASI Pod you are required to put on a pod cookoff once a year. To help
you advertise your pod cookoff we allow each pod to place one quarter page ad in
the Terlingua Trails, each year, free of charge. This ad should run the month before
your cookoff occurs. Should you decide that you need an ad larger than a quarter
page we will simply bill you for the difference in price. This ad should not be
confused with the article advertising your cookoff in the "Cooking with CASI
Calendar" section in the Terlingua Trails. That article will start to run as soon as you
request your cookoff packet and will run until your cookoff occurs.
