Notes: This is word for word from the recipe Frank gave me when we got married. Unfortunately, we've not been able to master it like he did. Mike said apple pie with a slice of cheese was usually served with the chili. Mike also shares that this is the chili Frank served to his customers at his Kansas City restaurant in the '20s. Later during the depression he made fried pies and would go out and sell them. He would take the money he made selling them to buy ingredients to make more the next day.
