Anybody that’s been listening to the Podcast for a few years knows that Aaron and John have called me “Ned” for as long as I can remember.  Well, a few years ago, Aaron introduced me to this refrigerated Chili starter called “Bloemers” – I’m pretty sure it is a small Mom & Pop outfit out of Louisville, KY - but they make the BEST starter for Chili I have ever had.  I call this recipe “Ned’s Party Chili.”  While my chili recipes continue to evolve, I now order Bloemer’s online in quantities of 10 – and always start with the base recipe I am posting here!  Feel free to make it your own – I’ve tried adding various exotic peppers (I like it HOOOOTTTT!!), and I love it served over spaghetti with mounds of cheese!  Maybe next year, you can serve at your SB Party as we watch the Redskins go for a fourth Lombardi Trophy! Enjoy!

Some Like it Hot! Gotta have the Bloemer's though!
