I love this chili. It tastes best when you make it the night before or early in the day and reheat for dinner. I use the tomatoes with chilis for extra flavor. The first time I didn't and it needed something. I also add diced red pepper.

i liked the black beans instead of the normal style of chili we make. ill make this every once in awhile, but i felt it was leaving me wanting more. ended up adding 1 can rotel, garlic & onion powder, more chili powder and adding cumin...still left wanting more spice. chili consistency was very good though, especially after it sat longer than 1 hr and cooled down.

WOW!!! I just loved this dish. I even got my 2 and 5 year old to eat it and wanting seconds. I added a little more chili powder and vinegar. We put shredded cheddar on top.

It was yummy but I only gave 4 stars because I had to doctor it up a lot to get a good flavor. I ended up adding more canned tomatoes and tomato sauce and lots more spice/seasoning. (I have also made it and added tomato paste.) I like to add a touch of honey too- to balance it out. I felt like it was just a pot of beans and things, whereas my husband and I think of a chili as being thicker. After some doctoring, this was good and I liked the idea of adding black beans to my chili. I think I'll use the idea again. We served it over elbow macaroni pasta.

I would give this 5 stars because it was so easy and good and nutritious- but I have to take a star away for the gas factor! OMG!! You better eat this when you won't be having company or don't have to go to work the next day. But really, it was very good. :-)

If you love black bean soup this is the chili for you! I slow cooked it in a crockpot for about 6 hours. It was so good- I plan to make it again and again.

I make this regularly as a side dish rather than chili; I omit the veg oil and meat and cook everything else in the crockpot on low for several hours. It is great! I sometimes add a tsp of cumin too. Thanks for posting.

Absolutely perfect! I didn't put the red wine vinegar in, only because I didn't have any and didn't feel like getting something I probably wouldn't use for a long time. I did add a 12 oz can of corn. I simmered for 2 hours. Perfect! Had it with "Best Ever Corn Muffins".

Fantastic! Like other reviewers had suggested, I added a 28oz can of tomatoes, cumin, and a small can of green chilis. I also cut back on the oregano a bit and added a chipotle pepper with adobo sauce, an extra can of diced tomatoes, extra garlic and I used red onion and olive oil instead of veg oil. I forgot to add the vinegar. My husband and I both loved it and had it again for lunch today. Will make this again and again. I served it with sour cream, shredded cheese and crackers. YUM!

I've made this chili more times than I can count, since I first saw the recipe. It's absolutely YUMMY! The vinegar is the secret ingredient here -- it takes it from great, to AMAZING! I love this recipe -- and it's even better the next day! If you're following the South Beach diet, this is a perfect recipe for phase 1.

I thought this was great chili as did my kids and husband! I only used 2 cans of black beans and almost a whole bag of frozen white corn. The red vinegar adds a little something and I will definitely make this again. Great served over rice or on its own. Thanks for the recipe.

I love this recipe. I would highly suggest substituting the crushed tomatoes for diced or stewed tomatoes for a less tomato-y flavor.

Simple & Easy & Yummy! This makes a lot more then 6 servings. I did take others suggestions: added a can of corn (drained), added 1 tbsp of cumin, and put it all in a crockpot for 3-4 hours. I also drained the cooked turkey before adding it to the crockpot. We ate it wrapped up in flour tortillas with cheddar cheese and sour cream. **Update** I made this a second time and it was just as yummy but I accidentally put 2 Tbsp of Cumin in....OOPS!! Panicking, I Googled my way to a solution....Nutmeg. I added about 1/2 tsp. and let it keep on cooking. (You could add more if you wanted the cumin flavor tuned down further). This time, I froze the chili in 1/2C portions because that makes 1 burrito and a little on the side for dipping chips into.
