Caught a rerun of this show, it's starting to chill here and thought chili sounds great. Our local country meat market didn't have brisket so I used chuck. Shared with friends and their sentiment was the same, this recipe is a keeper. Thanks for a great chili!

Right On Devon! WOW!!!
Prepared this again today and it is awesome rich chili!
Over The Top Chili. Spicy Hot Indeed! For those who do not like too much heat. I would use a teaspoon only of the cayenne pepper and the red pepper flakes. I would keep everything else the same.
Thank you Devon and Ina for sharing this wonderful recipe. So easy to make and the house smelled so nice.
Perfection!

Yes it is tasty, but way too hot and I didn't even add half the spices(I am mexican and am used to hot. Too soup like I will stick with by regular chili that I've been making for 40 years.

It is so tasty. My husband even doesn't like chilli, but this one. I use less dried chilli, and added fresh ones.

My husband and I loved this chili. We substituted chicken for beef and we only cooked it for about 1.5 hours and it still turned out great. Note, however, that next time I make this I will cut the red pepper flakes in 1/2 and use a little less cayenne. My husband could handle the heat, but it was a bit too much for me!

I had high expectations for this recipe being "award winning" and all. Is it good? Yes. Is it worth the 3+ hours of prep, cooking and stirring? In my opinion, no.
It's a personal preference but I like thick, chunky chili not soupy chili stew. So I'm sticking with the chili mix in a box -- faster to make, thicker and just as tasty!

Very delicious, but VERY HOT. This is a FIVE-ALARM chili, so chefs and diners beware! I used a 3lb chuck roast and cut it into smaller pieces to brown. *This was the most time consuming step.*
I had read the reviews and cut the spices in half and this chili was still kickin' & screamin', so use your own judgement.
Funny story: My roommate decided to be helpful and add the coffee.
UNBREWED! After two careful, loving hours devoted to this chili, I wanted to cry. So to those new cooks or well-intentioned helpers, be sure you BREW the coffee before dumping it in! :
In the end, even after I'd managed to scoop most of the coffee grounds out, this chili was STILL delicious. Lots of flavor and heat with this ~ this chili is definitely adventurous.
An ice cold beer is the perfect complement. Great job, Devon!

This chili wasn't very tasty. You get the inital heat when you taste but that's as far as it goes. I was very disappointed.

It is very good and tasty! The combination of flavors is amazing, never thought of adding "coffee"? to the dish it brings everything together.

The flavors were very good, but this chili will burn your mouth if you're not careful with the amount of cayenne, chili powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes you put in it.
