GAME DAY CHILI

If you’re new to hosting a crowd, this carefree menu is for you. Chili practically defines party food: It’s simple to pull off, a little goes a long way, and it tastes better when made a day or two ahead. It’s as easy to eat while standing as it is while sitting down—like the best guests, it’s versatile, adaptable, and welcome in (nearly) any setting. SERVES 8
