A steaming 'bowl of red' is the official dish of Texas, and the Lone Star State traces its origins to the legendary Mexican Chili Queens of San Antonio who lined the city's plazas with pots of homemade chili.

The meat in the stew could include whatever was available - beef, buffalo, jackrabbit and even armadillo. Outlaws loved it - Frank and Jesse James spared the local bank in the town where their favorite chili parlor stood.

But it owes much of its must-see status to the winning all-star line-up that has been assembled for this special event. Yet, although the cast may have been the initial draw, the audience was treated to a truly magical evening all around.
