"Is there anything more satisfying on a cold day than a hot bowl of meaty chili? If you're a big fan of Wendy's chili, the answer to that question is yes. It's a lot more chili. Depending on where you live, if you, or you and a group, are craving Wendy's chili, you don't have to settle for the normal-sized serving the restaurant offers. You can buy a whole bucket of chili. You just need to check your local restaurant to confirm availability."
"The easiest way to find out if you can buy a bucket of Wendy's chili, officially called a Family Chili, is to check the Wendy's app. Go to the order page for your local Wendy's and see if it's an option. It seems to be very hit and miss as to where you will find it offered. For instance, the Wendy's in La Grande, Oregon, sells a bucket for $18.99."
"Wendy's chili has a bit of a storied reputation. Some people love it, while others are not its biggest fans. You don't have to look far to find articles online discussing why you should avoid Wendy's chili or how unpleasant it is. Usually, it stems from the fact that Wendy's chili is made from leftover hamburgers that aren't sold, something the company readily admits. However, this is often presented as though the restaurant is using spoiled meat, which is not the case."
Wendy's offers a Family Chili bucket at select locations, and availability varies by restaurant. Customers can check the Wendy's app or the local order page to see if a Family Chili is offered. Prices and portion sizes differ by location, with reported prices ranging from $10.99 to $18.99. The Family Chili is said to serve four to six people; reported volumes vary from 1.5 quarts to an employee-stated 72 ounces (2.25 quarts). Wendy's chili is made from burgers cooked for menu demand, with some patties held briefly during rushes rather than from spoiled meat.
