OK so I can't afford BBQ comps but would lime to try my hand in the comp cooking game and I think I can make a decent chili, does anyone know anywhere a poor Iowa boy can try a chili Cook off that doesn't require membership to some of the society's...if I like it I wouldn't mind joining, thanks for any help

Not sure how you find the non-sanctioned comps, our town has one September 20th and we vend BBQ during it, the crowd usually eats a lot of BBQ during a chili competition.

International Chili Society (ISC) web site has a list.
http://www.chilicookoff.com/
I highly recommend the Neely's The International Chili Society's Official Chili Cookbook from 1981.
They ARE NOT the incredibly annoying Neely's on The Food Network that know nothing about barbeque.

In addition to ICS posted above, I see other events in this area. For example, a local Harley-Davidson dealer does a chili contest in connection with a Open House, and they advertise it in the newspaper.

We have a couple events in Huron, SD that I attend each year that fits your (and mine) NO MEMBERSHIP criteria. Around the 1st of June in conjunction with our KCBS event and Wheel Jam (giant auto/truck/bike event), we have a Chili contest AND a backyard BBQ event (pork loin, lamb leg roast, brisket, and turkey breast ARE PROVIDED!).
Also, during the State Fair (just ended), we have a chili contest and a cookoff (this year pork butt was provided).
Great contests that won't break the bank with entry/camping fees.
