I work in a hospital where the cafeteria is owned my Morrison's. I love their chili 
and have asked several workers for the recipe. Everyone that works there says they 
aren't allowed to give me the recipe. The hospital is in Louisville, KY.  
Can you help me find the recipe please?

Hi Pat,

I have a friend, James, who has copies of the Morrison's Cafeteria Kitchen Manual and also of the 1/91 Morrison's Hospital Food Service Manual. He sent the below recipe from the Hospital Food Service Manual. This is a Food Service recipe and therefore it makes a lot of chili. You'll have to figure out how to cut it down to home recipe size.
