The results of the recipe was great. The way the recipe was written was pathetic. When you mark a recipe as "EASY", a brain dead rookie at cooking should be able to follow the recipe and come up with something edible. And since rattlesnake usually cost around $50.00 a pound (yes, I said fifty USD), this is not something you want to experiment with. There should never be more than one "to taste" in an "EASY" recipe; or "several" tomatoes. Those of us who have been cooking for decades and have built a chili or two through experimentation before could follow this recipe easily. But if you are new to 'grounds up' chili or haven't been cooking that much, go find a better recipe. In my mind, this is an "ADVANCE" recipe.
