I made this chili during the Hawks game and it turned out really good. I took some of the leftovers to a friend at work and she sent me a message telling me it was "Amazing". as if sang in a broadway musical. Unfortunately i ate the last bowl late the other night and FORGOT to get a picture; slap my hand. This is better the next day serve with cornbread or you choice of toppings.
