Here is a recipe for chili for a crowd submitted by Mavis McDonald from Duluth MN USA.
Mavis says: “You’ll need a big pot for this recipe. I made it when I worked at a ski resort. Serve it with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream.”
Serve this tasty chili with large bowls of grated cheddar cheese and sour cream for topping. Fresh crusty rolls or garlic bread would top it off nicely. Make sure to have a few bottles of hot sauce for those who really like it hot.
It sure will feed a crowd! It starts with 20 pounds of ground beef! Great for large get togethers like church suppers, fundraising dinners, family reunions etc.
