MOUNTAINMAN CHILI



Mountainman Chili image

This recipe has been in my family for a long time. In fact, my mom used to can this and I would lake it on Boy Scout trips. Open a couple of cans of beans, dump a jar of this in it, and the whole troop chowed down. Good on chili-burgers, nachos, whatever.

CHILI FOR A CROWD



Chili for a Crowd image

This chili for a crowd was handed down to me by my aunt, who said she got it from a "grizzled Montana mountain man." I added some zesty ingredients to come up with the final version. Hot food is something that my husband's family isn't accustomed to, so I adjust the spices for them. In fact, with a few simple alterations to the "heat" index, I can serve this chili to anyone. -Lisa Humphreys, Wasilla, Alaska
