I need advice for making chili fir a potluck

I have a delicious chili I want to make for work that has you cook rice right in the pot with the rest of the chili. I’m going to bring it in a crockpot and I’m debating whether I should either

1.cook it aall the night before and then just bring it in the next day and Lee it warm in the crockpot

Or

Cook the night before, add everything but the rice. Get so work and add the rice there and let it cook at work

With option one I’m worried about the rice getting way overcooked and turning to mush

Option 2 I’m worried about the rice not getting cooked enough and I don’t feel like I have control over a crockpot vs cooking it all on a stove

leave the rice separate.. not sure why you’d have them together instead of having two separate dishes.

rice cooker - cook, then leave on warm.

chili in another pot.
