Great recipe. I did cut down on the California chili amount which was great for me, you could add to taste and simmer some more if you do it that way. I actually won a chili cookoff with this recipe!! Definitely has a wonderful complexity to it.

Excellent blend of spices and seasonings. Adjust recipe to make more mild because the original is fiery hot
