I made a variation of this recipe. I used ground beef instead of London Broil. I think the LB would be better, but when I found this recipe I was specifically looking for something to do with the ground beef I had on hand. I also has some pumpkin pie spice that I got for Christmas and since I don't like pumpkin pie, I thought this would be a good use for this as well.
I also couldn't find the Texas Style chili powder nor the chipotle sauce in my local store. I used regular chili powder and added Cheyenne pepper to spice mix 1.
I know "real" chili does not have beans, but I have to have them in my chili so I added a couple of cans of pinto beans. I also used a shallot instead of an onion. And at my daughters request left out the green pepper. :(
I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty this was. I would like to try it again with the Texas style powder and the chiplotle sauce and the London Broil.

honestly the worst chili i have ever made. we were so excited to try this after reading the reviews. i followed the recipe exactly against my better judgement. way way to much seasoning. the amount lasted would be enough for 5 pots. do yourself a favor and try a different recipe.

I used it as a base recipe and entered a Chili Cookoff. I came in second due to hotness, but it ranked as first for overall taste. The only changes I made, were cutting the pumkin spice in half, and adding dark red kidney beans. I know that is against some of the 'rules", but it added something to it. Also added some shredded taco cheese.
Overall, it was a great chili and a definate make again. Thanks Scott!
