I've made this twice now and it is definitely the best chili I've ever tasted. Its easy to modify depending on what I have on hand and the first time I made it I used whatever beans I had in the pantry including chickpeas. I leave out the green chilis because I'm not a fan, but the level of heat and intensity of flavour is amazing. It has now become a go to recipe and I've already shared it with friends.
I made it too but added an additional pound of ground turkey and doubled all the other ingredients with a can of yellow corn too. Its one of the best things ive ever made. I got 5 solid meals all for less than $10.
I,ve made this many times. The second time, I added the tomato paste with the spices, and browned it a little. This sent this chili to another level. I just won my Moose Lodge chili cook off. Great recipe. Thanks.
This is by far, the best chili I have made in 50 years. OMG, everyone on my list of friends and neighbors begs for just a little bowl. I am never going back to any other chili recipe EVER.
I made this to take to my daughter & son-in-law's house. She is in recovery from a surgey and a friend of hers set up a "food train" where someone different delivers a meal-a-day for the first week after her surgery. By the time it was my turn, they had already accumulated a ton of leftovers, so I told her I would bring some chili in freeezable containers for later. So the plan was that we were not going to eat the chili when I visited, we would eat the leftovers. But once they sampled it, everyone loved it so much that's what we ate, and everyone demanded the recipe. So....kudos!!
I know this is an older video, but I, too, just made this today. My husband and I LOVE it. It's going on our rotation of dinners I make often. Thanks, Sam, for giving us such a wonderful tasting chili recipe.
Made this tonight for my son and I.. and omg it was amazing!! I doubled the recipe, added a can of beer (Modelo), 86’d the kidney beans, and added some cinnamon. Definitely a top 2 chili ever if not the best! Now I need to find a chili cook off to win 😎
I made this recipe last night. Now I totally understand why you have been so successful with this recipe. The Beef stock is a game changer and once all the ingredients marry together, it is just simply amazing, the very best chili we have ever had. Thank you so much for this recipe.
This is the best chili I have ever made, seriously!! We had just cooked a pound of bacon for breakfast and had the grease and alot of cooked bacon left over, so I jumped on this recipe. Sooo good, thank you!
Love the recipe. I won the office chili cook-off with it. The only alteration I made was to double batch it and then use one pound of hamburger and one pound of breakfast sausage. It was won hands down!
I made this last night, and it was extremely good. I did have to make a couple modifications due to my current refrigerator contents. I used about 1.5# of beef stew meat and 1.3# of coarsely ground beef, far more than the recipe specifies. And I added 1/2 of a green pepper in addition to the red bell pepper in the recipe as well as an additional 1/2 of a white onion. And I used some roasted Hatch green chiles that I had recently thawed. Again, this is what I had on hand and had to use before it spoiled. But overall the result was great. I've never used ancho chili powder or black beans in my chili before, and they definitely add a unique flavor twist.
Thank you for this recipe! I changed it just a little but won this year's new year chili cook-off! Beat a 2 year reigning champ and 8 other contestants 👌👌👌
Made this tonight. Followed the recipe to the letter with the exception of I used a home-made beef broth. Outstanding chili. Very very good. I topped with lots of Fritos, green onions, and chopped pickled jalapenos & carrots. No sour cream. Didn't need it because the heat is just right, and savory. The bacon and Worcestershire sauce work really well. Very well done!
First time making chili and OMG!! This is top notch. Literally perfect consistency, sweetness but also perfect amount of spice. Enjoyed the ease of finding the ingredients and of making it overall. LOVE 10/10
I cant use any other recipe to make chili because this is the best one! I still havent tried with ancho chili powder but finally ran across some at target! Cant wait to try!
I made this chili for the first time last night. You made the recipe easy to follow, which I appreciate. Me and my friends loved it!! Thank you for sharing.
I’ve never been a fan of chili. I’m very strict about the chili I eat. And because I know all of your recipes are award winning (at least to me) I made this today. And it was SOOOO DELICIOUS. This is the only chili I would eat. I going to make it again for the weekend because me and my family loved it so much we ate it for lunch and dinner.
I've just tried this, as I happened to have the ingredients, and I have to say, this is the tastiest chilli I've eaten. All the flavours are perfect. Thank you, from the UK. 👍
Hey, I really want to make this tomorrow. What did you use in place of fire roasted chilli's and tomatoes as I don't think we have them canned in the uk
This chili is AWESOME! Especially the next day when all the flavors marinate.......wow!. The only I changed because I can't find the roasted diced tomatoes and green chilis is I use 2 cans of ROTEL.
I say this as someone who's neurodivergent and normally doesn't eat most ingredients included in this: this is the best chili I've ever tasted in my life. It's taking every last bit of willpower for me to not eat it all in one setting.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! The flavors had some time to really develop. Sometimes I will let mine simmer for a good while so the flavors become much better. :)
Greetings from Galveston Island, Texas! 🏝 🌅 Hi Sam! I had to tell you that my husband has won 2 annual chili cook-offs with your recipe. This last Sunday he won the second, and I told him, you gotta give Sam her props!! Last December was the first time he made it and when I tried it, I told him: you're gonna win. It was the best chili I'd ever tasted! And I was right! He won...out of like 25 chilis!!! This year he made 7 lbs of chili, and let me tell you, that pot was scraped dry, lol!!! Also, in between the cook-offs, my hubby has made it a few times for smaller gatherings for friends who were coming in from out of state and they all raved about it! So, thank you for sharing your most delicious recipe!!! We, in turn, have shared it with so many others!
Wow! Thank you so much for posting this video. I made this today, and without a doubt it's the best chili I've ever had. In fact, I now believe I've never really made chili before. I'm very appreciative.
Winter returned to us in Ontario, so I decided to make chili for my wife and I and I used your recipe. This was a great tasting dish and even though we had our own recipe, it has been thrown out and yours is now our go to. Everything about the flavors is perfect. Thanks for posting the delicious dish.
there was a chili cook-off at work, but it was cancelled so I don't know if I would have won or not, however everyone that had some said it would have been a contender for sure, hands down, made some minor changes... 12 habaneros instead of bell pepper, used a tbl spoon of my favourite honey instead of brown sugar, used a half teaspoon of cyan pepper, couldn't find fire roasted canned anything so put a serving of homemade meat sauce / can of nice tomatoes and a medium hot mango salsa, oh, I added a tbl spoon of coco, and 1 shredded celery (helps with indigestion). I never made chili before and can say it was so good, I'll be using this video next time I get the hankering for some chili. Thanks so much for posting, the instructions are clear and easy to follow. Adding two types of chili pepper is genius as well I must say!
I've forgotten how many times I've made this recipe. I've got it memorized! We had this funny little chili "cookout contest" amongst us neighbors. THIS CHILI RECIPE won everyone's hearts!
Tried this a few times and I browned the tomato paste like another said here and holy moly! So good. I also add a little extra Worcestershire on the beef. Yum! 😊
I have made chili so many times in my life and wanted a new take on chili. I am definitely trying this recipe today in my slow cooker. My husband does not tolerate spice well so may have to adjust to his level of heat. This looks absolutely yummy. I have several of your recipes on my go to list. Love the pizza dough recipe comes out perfect every single time. Browned butter instructional video best ever and the chocolate banana bread. There are others too.
Jus made your chili recipe and it was very delicious!!!!! My husband LOVED it!!! He said it is the best he has had yet. He ask me to make some more this month for a repast after a meeting he is attending. It is pretty amazing.....thx u soooo much for sharing!!!
Just for clarification, I was always taught to put the tomato paste in before the liquids so it can bloom the flavors.... Per my mom lol. Her recipe is very similar, my wife and kids love it. So this would be one to try. ✌️👍
The funny thing about this recipe lies in the fact that I was trolling RUclips for a completely different set of recipes and I got sidetracked looking at this recipe and let me be the first to say I was happy to find it.....and even happier to make this chilly........Damn good recipe.
I find that chili always tastes better the next day so I made this on Saturday and put it in the fridge fir the next day ..... it was fantastic very good chili thank you
This was AMAZING!! Eating my 2nd bowl right now lol. I doubled everything to have enough to take to my parents place, they're gonna love it!! Well.. that's if I don't eat it all 😆
Mine is extremely similar to this, but I also add light kidney beans, a bit more brown sugar, a small can of crushed pineapple with the juices, 1-2 tbsp of lemon or lime juice and about 1 tbsp of fish sauce and teriyaki marinade to really get that umami flavor. I usually get weird looks when I say I added brown sugar and pineapple, but everyone loves it when they taste it. I also do the corn starch slurry to thicken it up along with the beef broth and tomato paste. Well done! I also usually make mine spicy, but many of my friends can't handle the spice so I have cut down on the Chipotle and jalapeños, but my next batch for myself I'll definitely be adding the Chipotle pepper and adobo!
Just finished cooking, I’m glad I found this recipe with my first try on Chili, can’t wait for friends and family to taste it. Thank you so much ! It’s amazing 🤩
Made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious. Definitely the best recipe for chili I've ever tried 😋👌Just wanted to let you know that Worcestershire sauce is pronounced as WOO-stershire in the UK (I'm in Scotland) And we normally only say Wooster sauce (unless you're very posh) 😊
That's like the perfect chili recipe. Simple, but covers all the bases. I might go a little heavier with the heat and spices, but as is; that is nice. Also appreciate the addition of Brown Sugar! I tend to add some for that fraction of sweetness that combats the bitterness of some chili spices. Good job!
Dear Sam, I loved you a pretty clear demo how to cook chili at home. I’m based in Europe. Try to find all ingredients and start to cook. I’ve never done it before. Thanks again. Have wonderful cooking 👩🏼🍳
@@SugarSpunRun Dear Sam, I’ve recently made my first Chili, I tried to do strictly your recipe, added the sour cream and cheese toppings, it’s so delicious. Thank you so much for your Chili recipe. God bless you. Have wonderful upcoming Holidays! 🧁🤍🍲
I've been preparing to make chili. I've been happy with a recipe I got out of an old Betty Crocker cookbook. Yes, seriously. But everything I have made of yours has been great so I'm thinking I will give this a try. I'll have to pick up a few of your spices first though.
Going out shortly to buy the ingredients, I hope it will be delicious. This is 2023 that I'm seeing this and will come back and comment on how it turned out. Thanks
Thank you so much! I made this, i did it!!! I loved it and your channel has given me the enjoyment i wanted to find in cooking since i use to keep messing up recipes. I also made your tomato soup and loved it! I just wanted to express how much this means to me. I will now be making your bacon mac and cheese with my own spin on topping for a previous recipe i tried and im so excited to cook!
You are very welcome! I'm really glad you've enjoyed everything so much and I really, really appreciate receiving comments like this. They really do make my day and give me the drive to keep making more recipes. :)
I never comment on recipes but this recipe was fantastic. I won first place out of eight, in my office chili cook off. A few tweaks foe my own personal preferance: I did add a pound of sausage, so I doubled the spices. Also browned the tomato paste with spices and sugar, before adding to my meat. Can't reccomend this recipe enough!
Okay, so first time I didn't exactly follow recipe and it came out okay but the SECOND time I followed instructions to the tee and TRULY this is the BEST chili I've ever made!
I made this chili for a chili cook off with my friends and won!!! 10/10 would recommend making it! The only feedback I received was that it needed more kick to it so next time I’m adding a jalapeño! Thank you for the awesome recipe!
Just made this recipe, probably the best chili I've made personally. I added Thai chili peppers for heat but other than that followed you. This is amazing, thanks!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! I do have a white chicken chili on my blog, but I don't have a video for it currently. :) sugarspunrun.com/white-chicken-chili/
Thank you for the recipe this is my second time making it it only makes about four bowls so if you're going to feed a crowd obviously double the recipe
Your chili recipe was a hit at my party!! Everyone raved about it. Wish I would have tripled the recipe. I ran out quick. Glad I had enough corn bread!!
Nice presentation, worth subscribing. Turns out that the recipe is remarkably close to my own, which has also won a few contests. I add a little black coffee and serve the beans separately as a condiment. Alternatively, Try spooning it over a tamale.
Made it just now. I have never found a simple, yet tasty chili recipe. Safe to say now, that there is no chili recipe more important to me than this one! 😊
i followed your recipe except, after frying & mixing everything together, i put it all into a crock pot......to simmer on low heat.... i think i'll use this recipe from now on......thank you...
Great video and recipe. I used top ramen packet mixed with water and diced my own tomatoes because I didn’t have time to go out and buy that stuff. My husband tried it and LOOOVED it. Although he did say “Don’t be offended but this reminds me of the chili I got in San Quentin. It’s good.” 🤣🤣🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
I followed the recipe [almost exactly] other than adding 1.5 stalks of diced celery and a little extra garlic I then taste tested. It was good but needed a little more salt. So, I then added a few dashes of garlic salt. I also had just a little bit of beef broth in the can left-over, so added that. My husband likes lots of tomatoes, so I went back and added a 2nd can and some italian seasoning. I love bacon but was unsure about it in here but it adds another dimension of yumminess. Thanks for sharing!
Didn’t have ancho, but I added teaspoon chipotle chili powder instead. And added more brown sugar, only because I wanted it to cut the spices a bit. Thank you so much for your recipe! Your recipe is a more than a good foundation! Happy New Years from Germany!
I made this chili for a small chili cookoff last night. I took first place out of 8 chilis and won $80. The only bad part was that they ate it all and there was none left to have at home.
I've made this twice now and it is definitely the best chili I've ever tasted. Its easy to modify depending on what I have on hand and the first time I made it I used whatever beans I had in the pantry including chickpeas. I leave out the green chilis because I'm not a fan, but the level of heat and intensity of flavour is amazing. It has now become a go to recipe and I've already shared it with friends.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad enjoy it so much. 😊

I made it too but added an additional pound of ground turkey and doubled all the other ingredients with a can of yellow corn too. Its one of the best things ive ever made. I got 5 solid meals all for less than $10.

I,ve made this many times. The second time, I added the tomato paste with the spices, and browned it a little. This sent this chili to another level. I just won my Moose Lodge chili cook off. Great recipe. Thanks.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I bet this extra step does take it to another level! I'm trying it tonight!
Ha! Moose Lodge. 😜
This is my 3rd time making her chili and i saw your comment since the first time and been doing that as well🤣 thanks for the tip!
How much tomato paste ?
Your chili recipe keeps winning awards. I just won first place at our church on a chili contest using your recipe.
I wanted to thank you for the chili recipe. We have a chili cook off at work every year. This recipe beat out a 3 time winner this year.....
That is so awesome!! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it! :)
I bet the 3 time winner that was not too happy...😉
LOL I just know that person thought they had it in the bag!!!
This is by far, the best chili I have made in 50 years. OMG, everyone on my list of friends and neighbors begs for just a little bowl. I am never going back to any other chili recipe EVER.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
It is very tasty. Am not a chili person but this one made me love Chili 😄
I made this to take to my daughter & son-in-law's house. She is in recovery from a surgey and a friend of hers set up a "food train" where someone different delivers a meal-a-day for the first week after her surgery. By the time it was my turn, they had already accumulated a ton of leftovers, so I told her I would bring some chili in freeezable containers for later.

But once they sampled it, everyone loved it so much that's what we ate, and everyone demanded the recipe. So....kudos!!

Just won a cook off with this recipe 1st out of 20, thanks so much!!!!
I know this is an older video, but I, too, just made this today. My husband and I LOVE it. It's going on our rotation of dinners I make often. Thanks, Sam, for giving us such a wonderful tasting chili recipe.
I'm so happy you liked it!
Made this 3 years in a row and have taken 2nd place all 3 years.
Excellent chili. Definitely the best I have ever had!!!
I’m so glad you enjoy it so much! 😊
This is a 'first place' winning recipe. What is wrong with those judges? However, winning 2nd place 3 times consecutively is VERY respectable!
You know how you can just get a good vibe off some people? She's one
Thank you so much! I hope you love the chili! 😊
This WAS the best chili I've ever eaten. I made it last night and my wife loved it. Thanks
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much!
Made this tonight for my son and I.. and omg it was amazing!! I doubled the recipe, added a can of beer (Modelo), 86’d the kidney beans, and added some cinnamon. Definitely a top 2 chili ever if not the best! Now I need to find a chili cook off to win 😎
I’m so glad you enjoyed it😊
I made this recipe last night. Now I totally understand why you have been so successful with this recipe. The Beef stock is a game changer and once all the ingredients marry together, it is just simply amazing, the very best chili we have ever had. Thank you so much for this recipe.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much!! It’s even better the next day. If there’s any left 😉
This is the best chili I have ever made, seriously!! We had just cooked a pound of bacon for breakfast and had the grease and alot of cooked bacon left over, so I jumped on this recipe. Sooo good, thank you!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊
Love the recipe. I won the office chili cook-off with it. The only alteration I made was to double batch it and then use one pound of hamburger and one pound of breakfast sausage. It was won hands down!
Yay! Congrats!
I made this last night, and it was extremely good. I did have to make a couple modifications due to my current refrigerator contents. I used about 1.5# of beef stew meat and 1.3# of coarsely ground beef, far more than the recipe specifies. And I added 1/2 of a green pepper in addition to the red bell pepper in the recipe as well as an additional 1/2 of a white onion. And I used some roasted Hatch green chiles that I had recently thawed. Again, this is what I had on hand and had to use before it spoiled. But overall the result was great. I've never used ancho chili powder or black beans in my chili before, and they definitely add a unique flavor twist.
Used this as a meal prep for the week. It got richer in flavor everyday. Definitely recommend this with some garlic bread 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)

Hands down the best chili I've ever had. When I make chili I use this recipe every time 👍
I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! :)
I cant use any other recipe to make chili because this is the best one! I still havent tried with ancho chili powder but finally ran across some at target! Cant wait to try!

Been using this chili recipe for over a year now, i made it again tonight with elk meat! It was delicious! Thank you!
You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! :)
I made this recipe today on a cold day in San Antonio - best chili I have ever had! Simply delicious! 🙏🙏🙏
I'm so happy you liked it! 😊
Well, add another award for this fantastic chili!!! It was my submission to my office’s chili cook off and it came out on top!
Woohooo!!!😊😊
I made this and it was good. Oddly enough it tasted better after it sat in the fridge for a day and was reheated. Will make again.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! The flavors had some time to really develop. Sometimes I will let mine simmer for a good while so the flavors become much better. :)
Most dishes, soups and stews, taste better the next day as the ingredients have had a chance to marry.
that's because her recipe doesn't simmer long enough. use her recipe and simmer on lowest setting for 3 hours AT LEAST covered.
Thanks for putting the recipe in the Description Box! 😊❤
You are so welcome! :)

This was AMAZING!! Eating my 2nd bowl right now lol. I doubled everything to have enough to take to my parents place, they're gonna love it!! Well.. that's if I don't eat it all 😆
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I just made this chili tonight, I think i could eat this for every meal, good job Sam.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
Mine is extremely similar to this, but I also add light kidney beans, a bit more brown sugar, a small can of crushed pineapple with the juices, 1-2 tbsp of lemon or lime juice and about 1 tbsp of fish sauce and teriyaki marinade to really get that umami flavor. I usually get weird looks when I say I added brown sugar and pineapple, but everyone loves it when they taste it. I also do the corn starch slurry to thicken it up along with the beef broth and tomato paste. Well done!
I also usually make mine spicy, but many of my friends can't handle the spice so I have cut down on the Chipotle and jalapeños, but my next batch for myself I'll definitely be adding the Chipotle pepper and adobo!
Sounds delicious! :)
Just finished cooking, I’m glad I found this recipe with my first try on Chili, can’t wait for friends and family to taste it. Thank you so much ! It’s amazing 🤩
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
Made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious. Definitely the best recipe for chili I've ever tried 😋👌Just wanted to let you know that Worcestershire sauce is pronounced as WOO-stershire in the UK (I'm in Scotland) And we normally only say Wooster sauce (unless you're very posh) 😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊
That's like the perfect chili recipe. Simple, but covers all the bases. I might go a little heavier with the heat and spices, but as is; that is nice. Also appreciate the addition of Brown Sugar! I tend to add some for that fraction of sweetness that combats the bitterness of some chili spices. Good job!
Thank you so much! I hope you love it! 😊
Dear Sam, I loved you a pretty clear demo how to cook chili at home. I’m based in Europe. Try to find all ingredients and start to cook. I’ve never done it before. Thanks again. Have wonderful cooking 👩🏼🍳
I hope you love the chili! 😊
@@SugarSpunRun Dear Sam, I’ve recently made my first Chili, I tried to do strictly your recipe, added the sour cream and cheese toppings, it’s so delicious. Thank you so much for your Chili recipe. God bless you. Have wonderful upcoming Holidays! 🧁🤍🍲
A sneaky ingredient you can add for unique flavor is whiskey or beer. Adds a hearty flavor.
That sounds delicious!
Also, try a pinch of ground cloves!
Made this today....Absolutely fantastic! Thank you for posting this.
I hope you love it! 😊
I just got first place at awaken church chili cook off with this recipe thank you
Yay! Thanks for using my recipe 😊
I've been preparing to make chili. I've been happy with a recipe I got out of an old Betty Crocker cookbook. Yes, seriously. But everything I have made of yours has been great so I'm thinking I will give this a try. I'll have to pick up a few of your spices first though.
I think you are going to love this one. Hopefully it’ll become your new go to. 😊
This is the best I have ever made....So easy and quick to make..... only ingredient I have added is a couple of tablespoons of hickory barbeque sauce.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
Going out shortly to buy the ingredients, I hope it will be delicious. This is 2023 that I'm seeing this and will come back and comment on how it turned out. Thanks
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you so much! I made this, i did it!!! I loved it and your channel has given me the enjoyment i wanted to find in cooking since i use to keep messing up recipes. I also made your tomato soup and loved it! I just wanted to express how much this means to me. I will now be making your bacon mac and cheese with my own spin on topping for a previous recipe i tried and im so excited to cook!
You are very welcome! I'm really glad you've enjoyed everything so much and I really, really appreciate receiving comments like this. They really do make my day and give me the drive to keep making more recipes. :)
This recipe is one of the best I've seen so far !! Also love the way you say Worcestershire sauce its really cute, from the UK 😋
Thank you! 😊
Wuh-stuh-shur
I LOVE chili! I've never made chili before trying your recipe. I'm not doing it any other way. Bravo girly! This was delicious!
Thank you so much 🤗
That looks pretty darn good. I like the variety of ingredients goin on there, thanks for the recipe!!
Thank you so much! I hope you love the chili! 😊
I never comment on recipes but this recipe was fantastic. I won first place out of eight, in my office chili cook off.
A few tweaks foe my own personal preferance: I did add a pound of sausage, so I doubled the spices. Also browned the tomato paste with spices and sugar, before adding to my meat.
Can't reccomend this recipe enough!
I'm so happy it was a hit! Congrats!
Made this the other day, it is Awsome Chili, better than most !! Its a keeper !!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
Okay, so first time I didn't exactly follow recipe and it came out okay but the SECOND time I followed instructions to the tee and TRULY this is the BEST chili I've ever made!
I'm so happy you liked it! 😊
I have made this recipe many times and it is always delicious.
I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so much! :)
I made this chili for a chili cook off with my friends and won!!! 10/10 would recommend making it! The only feedback I received was that it needed more kick to it so next time I’m adding a jalapeño! Thank you for the awesome recipe!
That is so awesome!! I’m glad everyone enjoyed it so much. 😊😊
Just made this recipe, probably the best chili I've made personally. I added Thai chili peppers for heat but other than that followed you.
This is amazing, thanks!
I'm so happy it was a hit for you! Enjoy 🙂
Haven't made this yet, but love you for adding grams to the recipe. Such awesome.
I hope you love it! :)
I’ve made this recipe a lot, tonight I’m quadrupling the recipe and adding more of a kick with some smoked ghost chili from Wicked Tickle.
Woah! That's a lot of chili and spice! :)
I know this video is 4 yrs old, but I just tried it today. Best chili I ever had.
This is my first try to make chili, I followed recipe to the word. Came out really well. Thank you very much!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
Maybe you could use a little thickening agent and brown the beef separately at high heat to bring it to that next level.
Followed this recipe with some small adjustments to make it even spicier. Excellent, as expected. Thanks!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! ☺️
I have just made it & tweaked it as well. More spice & other seasonings made it much better indeed.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful chilli reciepe, it tastes Great! Saved to my favorites.
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Wow! This recipe is a bomb of flavor! Thank you so much for this recipe. My family loved it.
Do you have a recipe for chicken chili?
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! I do have a white chicken chili on my blog, but I don't have a video for it currently. :) sugarspunrun.com/white-chicken-chili/
Awesome! Can’t wait to try this recipe as well. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the recipe this is my second time making it it only makes about four bowls so if you're going to feed a crowd obviously double the recipe
I'm glad you enjoy it! :)
Your chili recipe was a hit at my party!! Everyone raved about it. Wish I would have tripled the recipe. I ran out quick. Glad I had enough corn bread!!
That’s so awesome! I’m glad everyone enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
I am so glad to have has been found this recipe this make me won a contest .🙌🙌
Congratulations! I’m glad it was such a hit! 😊
HUH?!
Nice presentation, worth subscribing. Turns out that the recipe is remarkably close to my own, which has also won a few contests. I add a little black coffee and serve the beans separately as a condiment. Alternatively, Try spooning it over a tamale.
Ooo that sounds so good! 😊
Made it just now. I have never found a simple, yet tasty chili recipe. Safe to say now, that there is no chili recipe more important to me than this one! 😊
Great to hear! 😊
i followed your recipe except, after frying & mixing everything together, i put it all into a crock pot......to simmer on low heat....
i think i'll use this recipe from now on......thank you...
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Great video and recipe. I used top ramen packet mixed with water and diced my own tomatoes because I didn’t have time to go out and buy that stuff. My husband tried it and LOOOVED it. Although he did say “Don’t be offended but this reminds me of the chili I got in San Quentin. It’s good.” 🤣🤣🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it! 😊
I followed the recipe [almost exactly] other than adding 1.5 stalks of diced celery and a little extra garlic I then taste tested. It was good but needed a little more salt. So, I then added a few dashes of garlic salt. I also had just a little bit of beef broth in the can left-over, so added that. My husband likes lots of tomatoes, so I went back and added a 2nd can and some italian seasoning. I love bacon but was unsure about it in here but it adds another dimension of yumminess. Thanks for sharing!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Bah ha ha ha in other words you made a totally different chilli.
@@leeking4205-No, it wasn't a totally different chili. I followed the recipe and changed it upon taste.
Sounds awesome, love the idea of the bacon fat, flavor town here we come!!
Enjoy! :)
I always use this recipe to make chili and everyone loves it so much!! Thank you!!! ❤️
You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! :)
Didn’t have ancho, but I added teaspoon chipotle chili powder instead. And added more brown sugar, only because I wanted it to cut the spices a bit.
Thank you so much for your recipe! Your recipe is a more than a good foundation! Happy New Years from Germany!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Happy new year! 😊😊
Glad to see someone say this, because I couldn’t find ancho at the store this morning so I grabbed chipotle chili powder!
I have made this with venison 3x and it is the best chili ever. THANK YOU!!!
Great to hear! Thanks so much for using my recipe. Enjoy 😊
Excellent recipe and one of the best tasting chill !! THANK YOU for sharing !! : )
You are welcome! 😊😊
I made this chili for a small chili cookoff last night. I took first place out of 8 chilis and won $80. The only bad part was that they ate it all and there was none left to have at home.
That is so awesome! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
