I've been making this recipe for at least 40 years. My best friend would drive 35 miles to my house just to savor the flavor of this recipe. Many times I would make a double batch & pack it in containers to freeze, and she would take it out as she needed it. It is thick rich and very hearty, & so comforting, my husband like it with macaroni, and also as Chili Dogs. So even though this recipe makes a lot, it never goes to waste. I usually freeze some, and share with the neighbors, and often we have it the next day. I made this yesterday, and the flavors have married and it is much better today
