Made for My 3 Chefs June 2012 tag game. I didn't cut my potatoes into wedges (I left them halved) and I also added a little garlic powder (1/4 tsp) to the chili powder and added a little more oil to help mix the mixture on the potato. A little spicey from adding a little more than the 1 1/2 dashes of hot sauce (which was my fault) but still quite good. Definately will make these again. Thank you for submitting the recipe.
