SERVPRO First Responder Golf Tournament

On Thursday, September 5th four SERVPRO franchise groups representing Massachusetts and New Hampshire hosted a golf tournament at Windham Country Club. The tournament was for first responders and trusted vendors. There are over 130+ golfers in attendance. Our franchise group had a 4-some from the Lowell Fire Department. One of the firefighters won the 50/50 raffle and donated his winnings to charity. Our Sales and Marketing Representative for Lowell, Bruce Dickey, won the closest to the pin contest on hole 16 missing a hole-in-one by only inches. It was a beautiful day on the golf course and a wonderful event.

Lisa's Chili

Office Administrator, Lisa Daiute grew up eating this savory Chili made by her favorite uncle David. Throughout the years she has continued this delicious tradition in her own home, making it for her roommates and family. 

The Perfect Chili Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 cup masa harina (corn flour, found in the Mexican food section of many supermarkets)
• One 15-ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• One 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
• Shredded Cheddar, for serving
• Chopped onions, for serving
• Tortilla chips, for serving
• Lime wedges, for serving

Directions:

Place the ground beef in a large pot and throw in the garlic. Cook over medium heat until browned. Drain off the excess fat, and then pour in the tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and cayenne. Stir together well, cover, and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. If the mixture becomes overly dry, add 1/2 cup water at a time as needed.

After an hour, place the masa harina in a small bowl. Add 1/2 cup water and stir together with a fork. Dump the masa mixture into the chili. Stir together well, and then taste and adjust the seasonings. Add more masa paste and /or water to get the chili to your preferred consistency, or to add more corn flavor. Add the beans and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with shredded Cheddar, chopped onions, tortilla chips and lime wedges.
