Endorsements come from the people we meet along way, on our amazing journey to fulfill Cindy's dream. Thank you everyone. Without you...Cin Chili & Company would still be a pipe dream!
First
of all, thank you for the delicious chili mix. When I was invited to
participate in a chili cook-off a few weeks ago, I was worried because I didn't
have a "signature" chili recipe. I remembered hearing of your
chili (I'm a Houston native), and thought why not give it a shot. Well, I
took first place out of ten entries and had to confess it was your recipe!
The folks who had spent days working on theirs were pretty envious of the
chili I had cooked up that morning, and I agree, its easily the best chili I've
ever had, let alone made!

Just finished our first bowl of your chili after buying the
mixes last weekend at the festival. Wonderful! My husband, who is a fantastic
chef, commented that he saw no reason to make his own chili again. I've never
heard him say anything like that before.

After seeing you throw down with Bobby Flay on the Food
channel the other night, I decided to give your chili a try. It is
without a doubt the best I have ever eaten! You have a wonderful product
and I will recommend it to all of my friends and family!
Thanks again,

Hi Cindy,
I am a self professed Chiliholic. I have absolutely NEVER tasted chili this good in my life. All I can say is I promise to be a loyal dedicated customer from here on out. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

I've tried several different chili recipes (my mom's and other
packaged recipes) and yours is by far the best! My son is 18 years old,
normally he would eat a bowl & then go for dessert. I made your chili
for the first time last night & he ate 3 bowls! (and I'm not
talking small bowls!!!) No dessert! That's saying a lot for a
football player! I just want to thank you for sharing your recipe.
I won't be making any other chili ever again! Thank you, thank you, thank
you. Finally a meal I can cook & no one complains! You have a
loyal customer for life.

I know you get many, many hundreds of emails....but i still had to
write and say how much we enjoy your chili. being from cajun country, we, of
course, had to put our own spin on your chili and make it more spicy. the other
night my brother and i were talking...should we order some boiled crawfish OR
make a big pot of spicy cin chili. well....you won. and i have to admit....for
the first time in our lives (i am 47 and my brother tom is 48) we passed up
hot, spicy boiled crawfish and instead made a pot of your chili. WOW. that had
never happened in our family. louisiana
people passin' up crawfish for (texas) chili.....who would have thought it!

Craving a snack, needing a new flavor, I added about a half
a pack to a block of cream cheese.... Viola!! I've found the perfect
spread for all these snack crackers that just keep taking up space in my
cupboard (because I really don't like them alone). Thanks again for the
amazing chili - I got hooked when I first had it in Iraq, and I won't live without it
now.... always keep some in the front of the cabinet :)

and Cindy,
My name is Paul Jacob my wife is your mail carrier (Martha Jacob) with the US Postal Service. Every Year we get blessed with great gifts from my wife’s customers.
This year she brought home some packages of chili and seasonings. My first thought was no one can’t touch my chili so this will probably sit in the cabinet til next year’s winter. Well that’s not the case. I ground up some ground beef and followed your instructions. Wow!! This Cinchili is no joke at all.
I called my wife and told her to get in real good with Cinchili & co.
Your chili and seasonings are truly a delight. This comes from a man who thinks his cooking is the best ever. My bubble has been popped. . Thanks so much for the samples.
Yours truly,
Paul

Cindy,
Here's a first. I have never sent a message to someone I didn't know on the Internet, but I simply had to write and say THANKS for your chili.
My family all look to grandpa (that's me) to cook the chili for the family...there are now 22 of us. I watched your last challenge with Bobby Flay on the Food Network and decided to give your chili a try. I must admit I gulped when I saw the price but went ahead and ordered the 6 pack saying to myself, "Self, this better be the best chili you have ever tasted."
When my order arrived I thought the recipe was way to simple but I followed it anyhow...except pressure cooking a chuck roast for the meat. Cindy, it was fabulous. I had to cut down a bit on the spice proportions since my family is a bit wimpie when it comes to heat...but man, I was the talk of the town...well at least of the family. They decided that I had discovered a new secret recipe and for a while I let them think that...but finally I had to admit that it was your spices that made the different. I even took a batch to our bible study dinner and after licking the pot clean they all wanted to know my "secret" recipe.
You certainly have a winner and I wish I could afford a case, but Social Security won't let me write it off as a medical expense...though they should since it restores poor eyesight, cures arthritis, repairs poor hearing, breaks up kidney stones, replaces Viagra, stimulates brain cells, lifts fallen arches and extends life expectancy...all of which are terribly important for a 73 year old celebrating 55 years this July with his child bride.
Keep up the good work and may fortune come your way. And by the way, you can tell anyone you want that I said so!!!!

Cindy:
My boss gave me a case of your chili and at first I was kinda taken aback, by this as a christmas gift. Over the holidays or should I say in a few short days I ate the whole case. I am addicted to your chili!!!! I would like to know if there are any locations down here on the southside of Houston or the Friendswood area that carries your product? I need some bad, really bad!!!
Its a perfect lunch serving, dinner serving and proabably a breakfast serving too. Any information you can give me where I can go and buy it off the shelf will be appreciated very much.
Thank you for this wonderful chili.

It was great seeing you at the show! Barb and I had a great time with everyone. What a great group of people!
Just wanted to say Hi and let you know that when we came back from the show, Barb took 1st place in a Chili Contest with your product!!
It’s not Bobby Flay, but she was excited that she won.
Thanks again,

Hi Cindy, thank you very much for responding to my question. Well,
I did your chili recipe in the crock-pot and it came out great. I’ve done your
chili recipe a couple of times and bought it to work and everyone just loved
it. I’m really kicking myself in the butt, because I went to your website and
found out that you were appearing on the view and missed it. I found out to
late and could not set my dvr. I can’t wait to try some of your other recipes.
You are my inspiration for chili cooking. I’ll be a fan of yours forever.
Dear Cindy:
Last evening my local Dallas group had a chili cook off and I entered using your Cin Chili mix . Aside from the fact that I love your mix, I did not expect to win best of show! I was speechless when my chili "recipe" was judged the best of 14 other entries!
I had tasted your chili at the State Fair of Texas last fall and was so impressed, bought a couple of packets. Not having time to make a batch of homemade chili for last night's competition, I used one of the packets (following your instructions to the letter). It just goes to show that your Terlingua winning recipe is still one of the best!
When asked what my secret was, all I could say was I used no salt tomato sauce...I was too embarrassed to announce it was your chili recipe, not mine. I have found your recipe on the web, and plan to try it from scratch next year - you're a winner!
I do plan to visit Central Market in Dallas and buy more mix :)

Saturday
mom wanted me to stop by Spec's and pick up a couple of packets of
Cin-Chili..(she is hooked on it)....Hadn't been to Spec's in a while and of
course they move stuff around on me all the time. So I asked one of the
guys that was working there if he just knew where I could find the chili
seasonings. He took me over to them in the deli (they moved it around on
me again) and went right up to Cin-Chili and said, "Buy this one. It
is the best." I thought you might pass that along to Cindy.
Spec's is really pushing her chili. How great for her.

You
have the best chili in the World. I made your chili while vacationing in Crested
Butte Colorado and it was a hit. Last November, I made a double
batch of it for my brother's wedding rehearsal gathering--It ran out so
fast!! I wish I made more.
It was nice meeting you at the Zestfest in Ft. Worth last time you were here.
Thanks so much! Phil Mulvey

Hello Cindy,
Feel free to use this as a testamonial cause I couldn't be happier. This past Labor Day weekend, I tried your 'Cin Chili' at the south Austin Specs. I've had chili from across the US and your sampler blew me away. I promptly bought some and four days later, we had rain and cool in Austin, so I figured while I was grillin' to make some chili...
I threw 2lbs of a 80/20 beef on the grill and then prepped for chili (I was also grilling burgers and chicken breast at the same time for some reason). 40 minutes later, after moving the large chef's pan into the house to simmer, I had the best chili I'd ever tasted, and plenty of it. My house smelled incredible and the whole shootin' match with top shelf ingredients cost $11!!
Now I did add half a white onion and mucho garlic for my signature fingerprint but wow, this is competition winning chili-- and it was cheap and quick! I am a customer for life, thank you!

Hi.
I went to Spec’s on Richmond and bought a couple packages of the Cin Chili. My family loved it! I see now why you are the “chili” Queen.
Take care and I hope to meet you one day!

I
made Cindy's chili last night. Boy is it fabulous!!! My last few
chilis came out yucky, but this was excellent. My neighbor had 2 bowls of
it. Only thing is, I wish I had doubled the recipe as there won't be any
left. Really really good!

A NEW LOYAL CUSTOMER NOW, AND I WILL BE SPREADING THE WORD TO ALL MY FRIENDS
AND FAMILY. THANKS
Happy Holidays to
you too, Bruce & Cindy!
My family really enjoyed the first two packs of Cin-Chili that I purchased at the Holly-Day Fair in Fayetteville, NC. It was by far the BEST chili that I've ever tasted! When the last packet was eaten we tried to save a little (for a rainy day?) but that didn't work! woo hoo hoo! We ate it all up! I've bragged about your chili to everyone. So-much-so that I just had to order more... so I wouldn't run out so fast! I tried the website that the vendor gave me but I could not find the chili there. So, I went directly to the website on the packet. My order was placed without a hitch and also shipped very quickly too! With the extra packets on hand, this time I plan share it with a few others (so they'll know I was telling the truth!) I'm sure you'll be getting more and more orders afterwards! We're planning to have a chili holiday and new year too! :-)
Thank you for marketing such a flavorful and cinfully good product. Happy Holidays to you and may God continue to bless you & yours.
Sincerely,
Louise Grier

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your chili mix and look forward to
receiving my next package soon.
I believe that chili can be one of the healthiest dishes a cook can make
today, and your special mix with good meat does the job. Thanks for putting
a smile on my face.

Hi there!
I bought a packet of your chili mix when I was at the Houston Hot Sauce festival last weekend.
I just cooked it up tonight, according to your directions, and it was wonderful! I was very happy to discover
that it tasted just as good as the sample I tried at your booth.
Anyway, loved your chili and I'll be looking forward to trying a few of the recipes that are on your site.
Best wishes,
