I am a huge fan of spicy food, but this was too much. If foods are going to be spicy they need to have a good flavor which this lacked.

Wow, this was awesome. Even though it was a bit spicier than I like, the flavor was unbelievable!!!! Even better the next day.

I made this last night and it was wonderful ! We had it with some Sam Adams Octoberfest. Just like everyone else, I cut back on the spices. But that's not a complaint... I would recommend this recipe to anybody. Also served it with tortilla chips, sour cream and an artisan blend of Sargento Mexican cheese. YUM !

love it....I have made this a lot during the winter and my family loves it. I would suggest adding the cayenne pepper last and only adding the amount you can handle. 2 tablespoons is REALLY hot!

Yes is mighty spicy but I like it that way but I did a can of diced tomatoes with the green chilis and chili beans my personal preference don't like navy beans. Also let it simmer for about 6 hours the longer the cook time the better the flavor.

My mom and I made this together and we loved it. We didnt add as much chili powder as it calls for cause it would have been way too hot.

Great chili! The seasonings in the recipe do need to be adjusted though... be sure to read the other reviews for modifications.

This chili is delicious!! The only reason I rated 4 stars rather than 5 is because I have to reduce the cumin to 2 tbsp and the cayenne to about 1 1/2 tsp. My husband and I both love spicy foods and 2 tbsp cayenne pepper is EXTREMELY spicy!! Other than that, I follow the recpipe and it is great with cornbread. It has become a family favorite..and its quick and easy!

I couldn't believe how spicey this was!! Tried adding more chicken broth and some milk but could not eat. I also choked and had tears running down my face. It would be alot less spicey without the green chilis.
