Host an unforgettable party by setting up a chili bar. Allow your guest to top their favorite foods with this Chunky Three-Bean Beef Chili on top of hot dogs, tortilla chips, pasta, and fries along with additional chili toppings.
Get ready for a sultry new chili in town. My Chunky Three-Bean Beef Chili is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. When I’m entertaining for a large crowd I like to make most of my food ahead of time. That’s why this chili bar idea is ideal for entertaining. You can make it the day before. Reheat the chili just before guest come over, and then set out all the toppings. You can make a chili bar for your guest to enjoy. One of my favorites is loaded chili cheese nachos, but you’ll see that I have plenty of other ideas too!
What toppings do you have for a chili bar?
Of course you will want to have the traditional toppings and then some not so traditional.
- shredded cheddar cheese
- sliced green onions
- sour cream
- sliced jalapeños (both fresh and pickled)
- avocados
- tomatoes
- corn
What do you eat chili with?
Here are just a few of the ways you can eat chili with.
- tortilla chips
- pasta
- baked french fries
- tater tots

Whether your guest want to enjoy the Chunky Three-Bean Beef Chili by itself with a few of the classic toppings on it or dig into a chili cheese dog or chili cheese fries it’s up to them. That’s why I love entertaining with a chili bar.
And let’s talk a little bit about this gorgeous red pot. It’s a 4.5 quart Circulon® Innovatum Dutch Oven. The patented TOTAL® Nonstick System combines top-quality PFOA-free metal utensil safe nonstick with raised circles on the pan interiors to reduce abrasion and ensure long-lasting nonstick performance. Sear the leanest cuts of meats and poultry to a deep, golden-brown with ease and confidence because this Dutch oven delivers superior food release with effortless cleanup.
This Dutch Oven is super light weight and the perfect size for this chili (and any other one-pot meal). Since receiving the pot I’ve made quite a few meals in it and I can’t stop cooking with it.
Whether your hosting a chili party or just want to spice up the way you enjoy chili with your friends and family. I hope you’ll make my recipe for Chunky Three-Bean Beef Chili.
