Saylor Chili – Simple Black Bean and Ground Turkey Chili Recipe

My favorite recipe to prepare in the fall and winter, whether it’s for Kari and myself, or for a party or get together, is my “famous” Saylor Chili. I’ve worked and tweaked this recipe over the years, and it’s become a crowd favorite. I’ve hosted Saylor Chili parties in the past.
