Golden Tiger ® is another example of a fine family tradition translating into products that are now being sold nationally.

The Original Chili Bowl

The legendary taste of the Original Chili Bowl has been satisfying hearty appetites for more than 50 years. The Original Chili Bowl Restaurant in Tulsa, Okla., began cooking chili back in 1947. Their original recipe started with fresh ground beef, blended with tantalizing herbs and spices, and was kettle-cooked over a slow fire. Still made the same way, the Original Chili Bowl is then flash-frozen to seal in all the taste and flavor.
