    This would have been a 5 star rating, but it is way to hot. Totally overpowered my palate. I did a double batch with elk instead of venison. If I doubled it as per the recipe, I would be putting in 6 jalapeños. I cut it down to 4 and it was still overwhelming. I ended up adding more meat, lemon juice and unsweetened chocolate (all cut spice with out changing the flavor too much and that's the only thing that made it eatable.

    This recipe was a disappointment at best. The spice totally overwhelmed the flavor; I love food with heat, but hot just to be hot where flavor doesn't come through is a no-no in my book. I couldn't appreciate the flavor of the venison--the only discernible spice other than pepper was cinnamon, and I wasn't too wild about that. This recipe has been firmly placed into my husband's "you don't need to make this again" category.

    This recipe was very easy to implement and came out delicious! The reason I only gave it 3 stars is that it is waaaaaaaay too spicy! I like spicy food (especially chili, but this was just way too much for me. It was so spicy that it actually hid the rest of the flavors. I want to be able to taste the other spices and the meaty-ness of the venison, and all I could taste was hot! If I make this again, I would halve the amount of cayenne and the jalepenos. I like the smokiness of the chipotle powder and puree, so I would leave that alone. Other than the spice level, I loved this dish, and would try it again with much less pepper!
