I don't really like chili much so it's not something I've made but am
now committed to making it for a do; I would appreciate recipes and
tips.

It should not be flaming hot (not everyone likes that) I think it
generally has beans, meat and lots of tomato. Also one of the picky
ones reckons he is allergic to oregano, so exclude that I see
there are recipes for doing in the oven, or crockpot but I think for
so much my overgrown stock pot will be best on stove top.

TIA
