Mathews Post 83 wins 1st Place Judges Choice and 1st Place People's Choice Awards at the 3rd Annual Mathews Volunteer Rescue Squad Chili Cook Off held Saturday, February 6, 2016. Seven organizations participated in the event that was attended by over 500 County residents. We shared great fellowship! Monies will go back to the county through the seven organizations. 1st Place was Tommy Lewis'(Past Post Cmdr.) 15 gallons of Sirloin Tip and Ground Chuck Recipe! It was the perfect balance: spicy, salty, and sweet with rich dark red gravy!!! Many thanks to all the Legionnaires and Auxiliary members who helped prepare the recipes, for slicing and dicing, and putting up with me while preparing the chili. For setting up our military display, serving and clean up. And for washing the pots!
