I just found out local Kiwanis is helping out our local school that has a grant to build a playground in a day. This will be done in 2 shifts and there will be about 200 people doing this build and Kiwanis is feeding them all with burgers, brats, and Chili.
I have made Chili for people but never this many. Kiwanis will get me any meat I need and that is were I need to start off at. What meat would be best to use. I am thinking of maybe doing 4-6 pork butts pull the meat and then just put it right into the chili mix or maybe to a few Beef Clods or even mix the two together. What meat would be best? I just can not see being over a stove and browning meat for hours the kitchen would be a mess.
Also what would be a good Chili recipe for feeding this many people. I know it can not be to spicy. I am going to use my turky frier setup to cook and warm it up. That way I should be able to make I think around 10 gal of it. I am not sure how much that thing can hold yet.
Any tips or ideas for making this kind of cooking would be very helpful. I still can not belive I have to make this much Chili.
