Recently Jamaica hosted the Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest Cooking with Red Stripe Contest & my were there some interesting recipes submitted.

From Red Stripe dip, to beer chowder, to Red Stripe chili, all of the recipes were creative, though some not very tasty.  The clear winner of the recent competition was Siri Henriques-Brown who placed first with her Red Stripe Chilli.

I was able to make the red Stripe Chili last night as a surprise Jamaican dinner for my husband.  We give the recipe two palates up!  Enjoy & congratulations to Siri.
