๐ฌ Uncle Dave says...
I have no idea if this recipe works or is even legit. That is because it is in the credits of possibly the worst movie I have never watched,ย Super Capers. How do I know about it if I never watched the movie? I happened to look up the movie on IMDB, and that was one of the interesting facts about the movie: there was a recipe for chili in the credits.
