Roy's Cafe Chili

Roy's Cafe is owned by Herman Buster Burris, who named the place for his father-in-law.

20 pounds chili meat
2 (#10) cans tomato sauce
12 tablespoons chili powder
6 tablespoons crushed chili flakes
2 tablespoons black pepper
4 tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons garlic
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons cumin
15 tablespoons paprika
8 cups diced fresh onion
Cooked beans, to add later

Note: One #10 can is 6 pounds, 12 ounces

Place the cubed meat in a large roaster in a preheated 450 degrees F oven to brown. Stir frequently until done. Add remaining ingredients and set oven at 375 degrees F.

Cover and bake the chili for 3 hours in the oven.

Freeze chili in blocks to be thawed and served later. Keep a fresh pot of beans on the stove to add to the chili just before serving.
