Every time I make this recipe I get fantastic reviews. Of course when you kill a deer you have plenty of meat to go around, and this chili is a great way use up all that meat. In addition, chili recipes are always so dynamic...you can add ingredients at any point to alter the taste if needed. I usually add 2 cans of seasoned black beans with jalapenos because we like more spice, instead of the regular 2 cups of black beans. I also substitute the cayenne and chili powder with a cajun seasoning for ease. Instead of cooking everything in a big pot, I saute the onion and garlic as specified, then add that plus the vinegar, tomato paste, chicken stock, etc. in a crock pot on high. Then add the cut-up cooked bacon, cooked venison, and beans in the crock pot. Give it a good stir and let the ingredients mix on high temp until the chili reaches the desired consistency and flavor. For me that's about 12 hours. But the nice thing about this method is you can mix everything the night before, put the crock pot on whatever temperature you desire, and have dinner ready when you get back from work the next day!
