GREAT! Did make modifications. Used 1 pound ground beef (halved recipe, no peppers, but did use one can of Rotel diced tomatoes with chilies and two diced chipotles in adobo. Added 1 Tablespoon of ancho chili powder, one teaspoon of regular; 1/2 tablespoon of Montreal Steak seasoning (has garlic on my ground beef and 1/2 red onion. Used one square of bakers semi-sweet chocolate. Used Agave syrup instead of maple, and used IPA instead of dark beer. Served in bread bowls -- my family loved it! My husband thinks the chocolate made the difference. Balanced with plenty of heat.

This is my new favorite chili recipe. I cook down the liquids so it is not watered down and when complete you can taste every ingredient. Fantastic, even when I made it with ground turkey.

This is an incredible chili recipe. I can't eat beans so am always looking for new ways to cook dishes which usually include beans. The beer and chocolate were incredible. I couldn't find the thai chili or the pasilla and cascabel chili powders. Just used more of the mexican chili and regular chili powders. Used two jalapenos since I didn't have the thai chili. Not too hot. Some nice heat at the back of your throat but none on the tongue. Ate over rice and added fresh chopped onion and cilantro with the crema. To die for!!

This dish had a very rich taste. I did have to take some of the heat out with extra tomato sauce. Also, the ratio of meat to sauce was a little heavy on the sauce side. We served it over rice, and I also added white beans to half the recipe. The creme friach was amazing! I will make this one again!

Best chili recipe I've had so far. I made it per directions except used half the water, and omitted Thai bird chili, since I don't have that one. The beer, chocolate and blend of chili's make this so rich and complex. Yum!

Tastes great. Very similar to the one i makke, but what i add is baja chili seasoning and it just gives it that kick.  Bajachili dot com. Also, try adding a half an orange to the pot. Very tasty!

I entered this recipe in our neighborhood chili cooking contest. I suggest you make it the night before you serve it and let it sit overnight. Upon first tasting my tastebuds were on fire; however, when it sits the flavors blend and the spicyness tones down. Warning: the chili peppers are hot, hot, hot. Don't touch your face after dicing the peppers. Yikes! I thought it was on fire. The remedy? Maalox. Worked like a charm.
It was worth it. I won the contest! Thanks, Bobby!
