My family loved this! I looked at the other reviews and left out some of the peppers. I used 6 jalapenos, and 3 habeneros. No Annehiems. I also left out the chili paste since I couldn't find any and doubled the tomato paste. This makes ALOT of Chili! We ate it for dinner and hubby took it for lunch and I still froze some!

Thought this was a great recipe. I followed the ingredient list and was scared after I tasted the aneheim peppers because they were hot. Think peppers in the summer time rippen better and have more spice. Therefore, only added two habies when I should of put in four. This chili recipe was medium hot with 2 habies. This chili is going to New Mexico with us into the mountains. Thanks for a great chili recipe. :)

Im a lover of spicy/hot foods so I wanted to try this recipe. I pretty much halved the recipe as I only cook for me (big portion eater) and hubby (not a big portion eater). Hubby hasnt tasted it just yet but I think its average. I used 4 habs, 1 ana, and 3 jals....and kept a few of those hab seeds for some extra "fire". Beware: IT IS HOT!!!! I think the cumin was somewhat overpowering...I also added a pinch of light brown sugar and honey to give a "sweet hot" as someone else recommended. I also used tomatoe sauce and crushed tomatoes with basil....and a shot of habenero tabasco sauce since I didnt have chili paste around. I probably won't make it again, but I will be freezing this current back for later in the week....a good "go to" lunch.

This was a very yummy chili!

Definitely a nice kick to it. I was concerned at first when the beer flavour seem to overwhelm the dish, but as it sits all the flavours came together. I also omitted the beans (don't like beans) and did not change any other part of the recipe, and it turned out great. Thanks for a great recipe.

Made it by the numbers, i.m.h.o. it was a bit too hot for most people. I added 16 oz. crushed tomatoes and 16 oz. of stewed tomatoes and that toned it down a bit. Overall, fantastic recipe!

Excellent! I love this chili and it is the only chili i will make now. I did leave all the seeds in the hot peppers, added some more chili powder for more flavor and left out one of the cups of water as it was a good consistency with only one. i think next time i make it i will add an extra habanero or two, i like to barely be able to eat my food because it is so spicy and one or two more habaneros would do the trick. Thank you for this recipe!

EXCELLENT! I did not have chilli paste- The flavor was fantastic! Not hot considering all the peppers, I would have left some of the seeds in if I were making it for myself. YUM!

First of all, 'OMG AWESOME' Recipe! I followed all of the ingredients exactly, but added a tbsp of garlic salt near the end, as my tastebuds like salt! I will be making this recipe from now on whenever I make chili.... 10 stars! On a side note, I noticed alot of people made their own recipes from this and added reviews about their chili on this recipe... People, you have your OWN recipe! Don't add your review here if its completely different from the original! Type up your OWN recipe on allrecipes.com instead of putting a review on something totally different.... It's like making a review about a BMW, when you drive a Mercedes.... it doesn't make sense!

Very good! Wonderful recipe as is, but I have to admit that I added a few things for personal taste. First, I used ground venison instead of beef or pork because we have tons of it in the freezer. (Didnt use the bacon) I also added fresh diced tomatoes, extra peppers and garlic, and a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. (chopped the peppers and poured in some of the sauce) Amazing! Thank you, thank you! This will be my chili recipe from now on. Topped with sour cream and served with cornbread. Yum!

This was really good. We used half beef and half buffalo meat and it was wonderful! I did add an extra can of beans. Thanks for the recipe!

Great recipe - great flavor even after cutting back by half on the peppers. I think they could be cut back even again and it would still have a nice heat.

I added a touch of brown sugar and honey to make it a "sweet heat". Had no luck finding habenero's in the chain grocery store so substituted more jalepenos.

I love this recipe! I have made it about 20 times in the last 3 years. I have altered it a bit though. As me and most of the people who come over to eat it dont care for chunks of tomato. So I just put in 30 ounces of tomato sauce and no chunks of tomatoes or whole tomatoes. I also put in about a whole pound of bacon to go with the pound of pork and beef. I dont add habanero since i already get complaints about it being to hot with just jalapeno. I just dont take out much of the seeds in my jalapenos so it still has kick to it. Anyone who is thinking about making this for the super bowl or any other occaison I recommend it and will be making it Super Bowl Sunday!

THIS WAS GREAT. I ELIMINATED ALL THE PEPPERS EXCEPT THE JALAPENOS AND USED A 16.5 OZ BOTTLE OF DOC JACKS HABANERO GRILLIN SOSS. THIS CHILI ALSO GOES GREAT WITH ANDY'S FIVE PEPPER WINGS ALSO LOADED WITH PEPPERS AND LOTS OF HEAT. GREAT COMBO FOR ANY SUPERBOWL PARTY!

Awesome recipe, Followed it to the T with the exception of the Bacon, only because I didnt have any, added a little extra Cumin... because I love it ... Was afraid the peppers would be tooo hot, but not at all, was very flavorful & with the peppers being seeded, the heat was perfect ! Great recipe , was told not to lose this one !

If you like spicy chili this is the recipe for you. With the amount of peppers in the recipe its not as hot as you'd think.

Very very good! It is hot of course but the taste is fantastic and yes, its easy to make. It is MUCH better after sitting in the fridge a day or two! After sitting it also does not seem as hot so next time we plan to add a bit more bacon, another habanero and two more cans of beans. But the first time we followed the recipe exact and it turned out fantastic. If you did not think much of it after making it please try throwing it in the fridge and reheat it well the next day, its a whole new chili after that! I did cook longer as well, forgot to mention that. I cooked it for about 90 minutes then added bacon and beans. I had to run so I left it on low for about 3 hours after that. Also, for gloves I had a box of surgical gloves and that works GREAT. They fit so well to your hands they do not get in the way and after chopping the peppers can just be thrown out. A whole box is only a couple bucks.

It's been awhile since I have made this. This is quite hot using habanero's but if your even attempting this recipe hot is obviously what your looking for. The flavor is excellent just the way it is. Perfect! There is no such thing as too many peppers as the previous reviews stated. Good chili if spilled on the table should leave a burn mark in the wood. If for some reason you feel this is too hot you can always add a bit of sugar, this will eliminate some of the acidity hence taking a bit of heat from the chili. I don't recommend adding gobs of sugar or it will be too sweet. A bit of sweet ketchup or some baking soda will help too. This is our new family recipe from now on for chili. Thanks for posting it Edd! FYI, If you forget or do not wear gloves cutting the peppers your hands will burn, baking soda will help with this too. Take some hand soap and 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda and rub it in really good, let it sit on your hands a few minutes and rinse. Good as new!
