This earns a full 5+ stars! I wasn't sure about a few of the ingredients (celery, bacon, bell peppers, Italian sausage) but was I ever wrong! This is the chili I will be making from now on. I used to use a kit, until now, that had Masa flour you added to the chili. I liked the flavor it gave, so I may try that in this recipe next time! My family likes hot food, and as this recipe stands, we did not find it hot- it did have some spiciness to it though. For us I would add some of my fresh x-hot Hatch chilies to give it a bit more kick. Spicy food is different to everyone though so it is hard to tell someone exactly how hot something is! I will be sending a batch, which by the way is HUGE to work with my husband. One batch of this is enough for 3 meals for my family of four. Served with Fritos, onions, cheese and sour cream! Comfort food at it's best! Yum!
