Haven't had time to post about weather today. I was on the golf course enjoying the sunshine.

And today?
Today I'll be setting up that freezer and doing some of the final work on organizing the garage, all while a nice big pot of pho is simmering. 

Wife works tomorrow while I'll be off for the holiday, so I'll be back to the golf course tomorrow.

We're a little rocky here too. It's been a cold January so far, with more rain than usual.

You can use garlic powder.  All of the competition chili cooks use powders rather than natural whole ingredients so they can more precisely control the measurements.

from what I read 10 years ago or so when I came up with my recipe, they used fresh garlic but chopped it fine enuff that it would dissolve in 3 hours and leave not chunks

things may have changed
I could try it, I have plenty of powder

Every chili comp cook I've talked to uses all powders, and no fresh anything.  Onion powder, garlic powder, and their own special blends of chili powders made directly from a variety of dried chile peppers (no Gebhardt's for those dudes).

The Wick Fowler's 2-alarm chili kit is all powder and actually makes a decent pot of red.  It was my standard in college when I was poor and didn't know what I was doing.  You know, before I became a stereotypical Texan chili snob.
