Now that fall is in full swing (well, at least according to the calendar), it’s time to rustle up the hearty grub that keeps us toasty on crisp evenings and sustains us while watching football. If you’re looking for a new chili recipe, Kelli Casey, general manager of Kelly’s at Southbridge in Old Town Scottsdale (she’s not the namesake Kelly), offers up an old family recipe that's now on the menu. “The recipe is a combination of old family recipes. I took part of my father-in-law’s – he’s from Pittsburgh and a diehard Italian – and part of my Irish grandmother’s recipe and combined them,” Casey says.
There’s a catch though. Casey doesn’t want to give away all the family secrets, so she’s left out a few ingredients. But, she ensures us, “it will still be delicious.” If you want to discover what’s missing, you’ll have to visit Kelly’s at Southbridge to taste the real deal. Then, report back and let us know.
