Bob is a retired Captain from the Carson City Sheriff's Office who started cooking chili in 2011. He competes in 7 to 10 cook-offs a year, and when he’s not doing that he enjoys camping with family and friends! To Bob, the best thing about cooking in the ICS is how welcoming, friendly, helpful and FUN chili cooks are.
