I prefer the "stewy" kind of chili, as opposed to the "soupy," but whatever your preference, there is nothing like it to take the edge off the cold and cleanse the digestive system, if you know what I mean.
Spicy is best, I used a half bottle of chili powder and 10 shakes of my friend Donny's "burn your face off" home-grown ground habenero. (the use of this product requires pure balls.**) I use three meats, including diced strip steak, ground chuck and ground turkey. This chili is probably 35 to 40 percent meat. The rest is a combination of tomatoes/sauce, various beans, mushrooms, chilis, onions and a dash of a special ingredient I cannot tell you about. Okay, it's brown sugar... see, I can't keep secrets worth a shit.
Anyway, if you want the actual, exact recipe, e-mail me and I'll direct you to the blog of someone who knows what they're doing... I didn't use a recipe, just gut. Which, ironically, is the part of my body that will pay the ultimate price for this indulgence.

Wow, your kitchen is really tidy. Do you hang your shirts in color-coded order too?
I think last night was chili night all over America.
i make mine from scratch...but beanless...eliminates some of the odor
I love chili! Yours looks good!
Is there anything better than that kind of comfort food as we head into winter? I say not!
Ummmm...I can smell it! It smells wonderful. It looks good too.
I made chili last weekend.
You are right~ nothing like good hot homemade chili on a cold night.
Probably tastes a lot better than that Burger King chili. That stuff is made of, like, shoes.
All those ingredients are what make a chili perfecto. However, that is about two shakes too many of Habanero (from one who much prefers Pequin).
I like mine w/out beans, but damn...that looks good.
I am really hungry and looking at this pic just makes it worse..........
It looks delicious...
wow,you made chili again?!? You are on a roll, cowboy!!!
