Additional recipe notes

If the chili is too spicy, serve the chili topped with plenty of sour cream and cheese. Or serve over white rice. Chili stores great. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to three months!

Storage & reheating safety

For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
