Hi Renee, that s an interesting situation you found yourself in.
I don t often serve chili, but when i do, the best solution I found is to place a small wooden cutting board inside the steam pan i am using to heat my chili. The bottom of the pan heats the cutting board, and the board heats the chili.
This takes a bit longer to heat, but it works great as a food warming solution.
I’ll take two orders of the cutting board Chili………..There is only one way to heat up Chili on a HD Cart………..”DBL Boil method” Stirring from the bottom to the top as you heat………………BillyB

I’m trying to figure out if you made an honest mistake in calling me Renee or if you are on one of your high horse smart a$$ moments.
 
I like the cutting board idea, would it work for keeping buns warm??
