A few too many beans for me. Now I like beans, but you really have to be in the mood to eat beans to enjoy this recipe. I think the quantity's 7 1/2 cups of beans total. The flavor was terrific as usual for Emeril though. Oh, and watch out mashing tomatoes by hand, I know that this shows that I'm a novice cook, but the juice of the very first one squirted me right in the eye - or would have, I wear glasses. 8-

I loved this recipe. My family does not like all the beans that this recipe calls for so I only used pinto and black beans and it came out delicious.

I LOVE the taste of this recipe. Don't mess with the spice combinations or amounts UNLESS you prefer it hotter. I've turned this into a vegetarian recipe by substituting quorn for the meat and using veggie stock for the beef stock. The only trick here is you don't need to brown the quorn crumbles. They're already cooked - in fact, you can add them to the already cooked veggies at the same time as the tomatoes and stock, etc... I haven't tried adding them when you add the beans but that could work too. If the quorn or other veggie crumble substitute you use cooks too long, it gets mushy. No one ever complains about this being vegetarian - even in the meat eating capital of the world (Memphis I cook it often for parties because my daughter doesn't eat red meat. I've given this recipe out a couple of times because folks always comment on it. Thanks Emeril for the great flavors!!! Hands down, my fav chili recipe. I bet it's awesome with ground beef as well.

This was the best chili I have ever made. I adjusted the recipe a little by decreasing the broth and adding some tomatoe paste. Everyone just loved this chili. I cannot wait to make it again.

This is definitely my go to chili. It has a good balance between meat and beans. My husband like substituting sausage for half of the meat.

We have made this a few times now and hubby plus all of my kids 2 1/2 - 9 love it and keep asking for more. I added sweet corn as that is something I like in my chili. Very easy to make, could even drop in a crock pot I bet!

Great chili recipe. It was pretty mild, so you have to add hot sauce to your taste. I also reduced the beef stock to 2 cups, and added some beer.

I've made this at least 5 times, it's one of my go to chilis. Great chili that doesn't need 8 hours to cook.

5-bean chili is 5 star chili! My husband thinks we should enter into a chili contest. Just enough spicy kick without overpowering the flavors. Can't wait to eat another bowl today!
