I wouldn’t say it’s my number one chili choice but my boyfriend and I enjoy it for a nice change up from my typical chili recipe.
(I don’t know what the lady above me is talking about with spice, granted I live in Texas so spicy food is EVERYWHERE and we love it.)

Less than 1 star If i could. Inedible. Way, way too spicy – my children refused point blank to eat it and even my husband and I who love spicy things had a hard time with this. Further, there’s no liquid recipe – after 8 hours on low, I had dark black beans and meat and no liquid to make it chili. Don’t make this.

At the time of this review, the online posting of this recipe has two errors. Published first in the April 2017 Food Network Magazine, the first ingredient should be 1¾ pounds of cubed beef stew meat (omitted in the online list of ingredients) and the second ingredient should be 2 tablespoons of ancho chile powder instead of the online listing of 1¾ Tbs. That being said, I followed the recipe as published in the printed magazine and found it to be worthy of a five star rating. My wife & I enjoyed it, comparing it to chile colorado with beans added. We plan to make it again as a dish for the next church meal we participate in. It’s very good and not too spicy for the kids.
