Great base recipe for chili. I use this recipe all the time. I add to and adjust to my taste but adding the sausage adds a great depth of flavor and I really like this recipe as a base.

First time ever cooking chili and I won the cook off. I did add a green bell pepper and then substituted a few special ingredients to suit my taste but this is very simple recipe that will allow you to do that and not get totally out of control.

It was VERY flavorful…unfortunately, they weren’t flavors that we liked. It was too spicy for us. And they consistency was more like taco meet than chili. Sorry Robert, we couldn’t finish this one:-(

This recipe is deceiving. While it may taste good, the title is misleading. If you come to Santa Fe, you will not find this type of chili unless you ask for Texas chili. This is not “Santa Fe chili”….not even close.

This is the best and easiest chili I have ever made. The whole family LOVED IT!!!(even the dog!!) This is the best way not to spend hours cooking and come up with a weeknight meal that everyone loves!!! Thanks Chef Robert!!
