Chili is one of those dishes that just get better the longer it sits!
Make sure you reheat it thoroughly (I would bring it to a simmer over medium heat, and let it simmer on medium-low heat for about 15-20 minutes ~ low and slow ~ then test for temperature)!. You could even throw it in the crockpot on low for a couple of hours (stirring a couple of times to ensure even heating)!.
Key is to make sure you bring everything back up to ideal temperature ;)Www@FoodAQ@Com

you should never freeze food unless you plan on using it in future weeks or months ahead!.refrigerate & heat it up on Wed!.if possible,make it the same day you plan on using it-some people do not beef or turkey etc!.!. heated up-good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com
As long as you don't put it into the fridge while it is still hot, it will be fine just to sit in the fridge; you don't need to freeze it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
It will be fine as long as you reheat it thoroughly!. If your really worried , make it with quorn instead so that you dont have the reheating meat issue, it'll taste pretty similar!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes it will be fine just make sure it's cold before you put it in the fridge and cover it!. Heat through till piping hot and enjoy! the flavours develop with standing so it should be extra tasty!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
properly refrigerated it will be fine!.!. there's a unwritten law/fact/saying in our family!.!.!. chili tastes better after 1 or 3 days in fridge!. i guess because it gives the flavors more time to mature and meldWww@FoodAQ@Com
