This is a wonderfully rich and flavorful chili. I have made it with Guinness and Newcastle and the dark beer really sets off the flavors. I also used deer meat instead of ground beef and received rave reviews!

This recipe is great and simple. Instead of cooking it on the stove top I throw everything into my slow cooker on low for the day and stir it every once and a while. It turns out great. I make it just as the recipe calls for except that I can never find chili beans so I just use 2 cans of kidney instead of 1. I make it all the time in my home and usually make extra to freeze so it's always on hand. A favourite!!!

I added one green pepper and two seeded jalapenos. Also, I substituted diced jalapeno-flavored chicken sausages for 1/2 lb. of the ground beef. Delish, a very good recipe to build on!

I really like the base of this recipe. I made the following changes for my own taste. Bob Evans Zesty Hot Roll Sausage instead of beef. No mushrooms. Done with and without beer and didn't really notice a difference either way. 1 cup Frozen Corn. 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper was enough heat.

This is a Good recipe!!! My husband enter me in a Chili contest at his job and I used this recipe. We didn't win but people loved it, there was none waisted. I added 2 cups of dark beer (Mississippi Mud) and 1/2 cayenne pepper it seems like a lot but its really not and it came out GREAT!

My kids, who claimed not to like chili a couple of years ago, gobbled this right up! I added one green pepper and omitted the mushrooms. I also cut back on the cayenne, using only a scant teaspoon. Plenty zippy for the kids. During the final 15 minutes, I added a paste of 2 tbsp cornmeal and water to thicken it up a bit. I'll be making this again! One last detail: being a Wolfpack fan by birth, I hesitantly made this recipe. However, with the changes I've made, I'd prefer to call this "Rockin' Wolfpack Chili."

This is the best chili recipe I've found. I did make some changes though: I added 2 green peppers, I used 2 lbs of soy crumbles instead of ground beef, and I only used about 1/4 tsp of cayenne (next time, I will use 1 tsp). I used Newcastle for the beer. This was better than the chili mom used to make.

This is an awesome chili recipe! I thought the mushrooms were strange, but they pleasantly added some extra texture and color. I used a few white buttons instead of canned. If you don't like beer, don't be afraid to put some in this chili. It does add depth like someone else pointed out, and your chili will not end up tasting like beer. Delicious, spicy and colorful, and great to eat out of a bowl or with chips, I will be making this again and again! Thanks a bunch for sharing.

The best chili recipe! It was so easy and delicious! My roommate also loved it!! I didn't put beer because the store only sold 6-bottle beer and I don't drink beer. It still came out great. I didn't add mushroom but added bell pepper. Yummy!

This recipe was great! I subsituted carrots and peppers for the mushrooms and celery. I also made the recipe for 6 servings instead of 12 and discovered that if you simmer it for 3 hours the bottom burns! I would only simmer for 2 hours.

I cut serving size to 6. I added 4 oz can of diced green chilis and left out the mushrooms. Used moose burger rather than beef for lower fat. Pan fried all the vegtables. I thought the results were great. Cooked for 3 hours on high in crock pot.

This was pretty good. The best chili recipe I've tried so far. I left out the mushrooms, addes some chopped bell pepper since I had some in the fridge. I only did one pound of ground beef and added two extra cans of beans (seemed healthier and tasted just fine). Also, I didn't precook the vegetables. Instead I dumped everything in the crock pot and cooked it on low all day. Turned out great. I'll definitely make this one again.

Being a Tarheel myself, I was attracted to this recipe because of the name. And I'm pleased to report that we liked this recipe a lot! I made it as directed, except couldn't stand the thought of mushrooms in chili so I left those out. My only complaint is that it's pretty salty - between the 2 cans of chili beans, the kidney beans and the tomato sauce there is a lot of sodium. If you can find low-salt canned goods I would recommend it. Thanks for the good recipe!

I like my chili thick which this was but that's all it had going for it. It seriously lacked flavor...it was all spice, and we couldn't taste anything else. Neither my husband or I liked it at all.
