I’ve been making Headquarters Chili since before leaving Philly for Vegas in 1991. I use turkey meat, sometimes over rice, sometimes as Sloppy Joes, sometimes as a Tamale Pie. Traditionally I make it for Presidents’ Day, but this year I’m doing it for Super Bowl Sunday. It keeps me off the Vegas Strip that replaces our lost Las Vegas Zoo.

I love this recipe, but I reduce the calories by not using oil, using ground turkey and substitute taco seasoning...somebody always wants the recipe.

Hive been making this forever. I reduce the ground beef to 2 lbs and no oil. I like my chili spicy so I add small can chopped green chili and a smidgen of Pequin chil flakes.
I still have the Marlborough booklet where I originally found the recipe about 45 years ago.
me too. best chilli.
So do I. I use Bourbon or Rye instead of water.
I had a Marlboro chili cookbook at one time - and there was a recipe for green chili - the story that went with it was, a father always made the chili when his daughter became serious about some one. The first man to ask for a 2nd bowl became her husband. I would LOVE to have the recipe again!
