I amnot a big chili fan, but I loved this chili! Everyone went back for seconds. I used 1 can of tomato soup and a can of petite diced tomato. I will definately put this on my rotation.

I followed this recipe exactly except I left out the red pepper flakes and it came out perfect. It wasn't spicy at all but was full of flavor. My 1 and 4 year old boys loved it!!!

My new favorite chili recipe. I am so glad I finally found a recipe so I can stop using the chili seasoning packets that add up to a lot of money. All the other recipes I have tried didn't hit the spot. I took this to work and it was gone in no time flat. People were asking "what happened to the chili I didn't get any!" The only thing I did different was to decrease the red pepper flakes as others suggested and use 1 can tomatoes with green chilies and one can diced tomatoes since I didn't have any tomato soup. The second time around I tried it with one can soup and one can tomatoes and I didn't like it that way as much. Thanks for the great recipe.

So here is why I am giving this recipe 5 stars...I don't even like chili, but this was AWESOME! I only tried the recipe because I am always looking for simple recipes to make in my crockpot & my husband is a huge chili fan. The recipe was so simple, everything just gets tossed into the crockpot and bam 7 hours later I have delicious chili! I didn't have allspice so I left that out, and I didn't have kidney beans. Even without these 2 ingrediants the chili was fab! I served it with fresh bread and topped each bowl of chili with some chedder jack cheese. I will definitly be making this again and again. Thanks for the great recipe!!

A-1 chili as it was--and healthy! Changes include leaving out the veg oil--turkey browns just fine on its own. Added a grated carrot in there for a little extra somethin'. I left this to simmer for two and a half hours on the lowest setting (stirring occasionally) in a large pot as I don't have a slow cooker. Great stuff!

I love this recipe, I make it all the time in the cool months. I can eat it for days until it's gone. I use a little less kidney and a little more black beans still very delicious. Also add alot more red pepper flakes to kick it up a notch!

This recipe is delicious! I made it for some friends from England. They had never had chili before and they loved it. I used half tomato soup and half petite diced tomatoes. I also used one less can of beans and thought that was plenty. This will be my staple chili recipe from now on!

I took the reviewers advice and used only one can of tomato soup and added 1 1/2 cans of diced tomatoes. I omitted the allspice and red pepper flakes but I added 4 chipotle and adobo sauce. Kept it spicy. Perfection!!

This is a great recipe and very easy to put together. I pull less chilli powder because I wanted the kids to try it. They tried it but still found it spicy. My husband loved it but wanted it to be spicier! In any case it is a great reciped to serve for a get together and very simple to make.

It was so easy and soooo good. Added 3 cloves of garlic and 1/2 packet of taco seasoning, 1/2 cup of veg refried beans and a little beef broth. The chili had a cheesy texture. Everyone came back for seconds til it was all gone. :)

YUM! This recipe is fantastic. I substituted one of the cans of tomato soup for some diced tomatoes, as other reviewers had suggested but that was the only change I made. I was a little afraid of the red pepper and chili powder but followed the recipe anyways. In the end I thought it had the perfect amount of spice.

I love doing slow cooker chili. It's so easy. Here's the things I did differently: 1 larger can of kidney beans (19oz I believe) instead of two cans, added a can of corn, added two jalapenos, added a little more red pepper flakes, subtracted one can of tomato soup, added a half can of water for moisture. Came out great! My fiance said it was too spicy but I like it that way. She's able to eat it with some bread on the side.

This was excellent chili. I used a 15 oz. can of tomato sauce and a 15 oz. can of diced tomatoes and it is perfect consistency. I also added a tablespoon of adobo sauce for a little more zip. Thanks for a great recipe.

The recipe is great! I subbed diced tomatoes for the soup, added a diced yellow pepper, & omitted the allspice. **NOTE: If you are feeding a hungry crowd and/or want leftovers, you may want to double the recipe. It makes 8 small portions.

Made the recipe as written except used canned tomatos instead of tomato soup (didn't have any). Very spicy, hearty, and delicious. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent recipe! I followed it exactly, and then added some corn. It was spicy, thick, and extremely easy to make. My boyfriend said it was "good" after the first bite, and for this man that means it was excellent. Thanks!
