I place in 2" deep pan lined with foil. I pour a can of coca cola over it and bake for 1 hour in a 325 degree oven. I baste it every 15 minutes but if you cover it with foil

wonderful,it ruins it for sandwich making.

How do you tone down savory dishes that are too sweet?

Remenber all the times you've seen a recipe that says ... and season to taste.

That's the best way out of this one; take a small sample of your too-sweet chili, add a very small amount of ingredient x. Taste it. If it seems good, add more to the main body. Not too much, you can always add more if needed.

If x didn't work, take another small sample and add ingredient y. Keep on trying till something works. Things you can try include : -

lemon juice

lime juice

minced raw onion

minced raw garlic

vinegar

anything else in your cupboard with a sharp, sour or acid taste.
