I can't find my favs that I had written down somewhere. So, if you have a favorite or good one, please post it. I've had some mild or sweet flavored chili that were as tasty as some hot ones.

Thanks!

i don't have a recipe, but here are some fantastic things I have done

Use spicey breakfast sausage in addition to ground beef
add Cumin in equal parts to the chili powder
Add a can of domestic beer (or even better, put 1/2-1 cup of whiskey into the frying pan that you cooked the meat in, and then fry out the alochol out and then pour everything into the pot)
add corn, add chopped up green peppers
use cans of rotel instead of chopped tomatoes (rotel has green chilis mixed in)
add jalapinos
add crushed garlic


use some ground turkey in place of ground beef, when you fry the ground turkey make it like taco meat, use packages of taco seasoning to flavor it before you put it into the pan.

I don't have a recipe. I kind of just wing it, lots of veggies (onion, green pepper, tomatoes, corn, jalapinos, variety of other peppers, etc)

Cook it for a long time (make it as soon as breakfast is over, and let it cook ALL DAY)
don't add the beans until 1 hour before you serve it.

Besides those rules, I just kind of wing it.

A bit off-topic, but this reminds me of one of my favorite all time jokes... and it happens to be about chili : Chili Tester at FunnyandJokes.com
