This is just a favorite of mine, it feeds a good size crowd easily with just a few dishes & you don't have to slave over a hot stove. I usually put it on the night before on low in crockpot & turn down to warm after 12 the next day.Sometime serve on cornbread rather that rice or just eat buttered cornbread with it. Tip if its a little spicy for someone add a little butter to their bowl to tone down spiciness.
