every year on the first saturday of football season i get up and make a big pot of deer chili to eat on all weekend! Im always looking for something different to add to it, i use all colored bell peppers, onions, garlic, kidney beans, and spices. I know everyone throws different stuff in, just looking for some different options i can add to spice it up!

I make more than one chili variation.

One of them includes diced mushrooms and black beans, in addition to your previously mentioned peppers, onions, garlic, and kidney beans.

Penzey's Chili 9000 is a great spice blend. I know some don't believe in pre-mixed blends, but I love this one.

You should probably read this thread.

I don't make it properly according to the thread even though I like my chili. I made some this past weekend. Always includes semi sweet chocolate and Dos Equis Amber.

I make a vegetarian chili w/ broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, poblano peppers, potatoes, onions and pinto beans. I also throw in several dried chipotle peppers to give it a smokey spicy flavor...remove the peppers before serving. I also have been making my own chilli powder by grinding various dried peppers.

I make it pretty different every time. Almost always add beer. Have tried different styles and gotten different results. My biggest tip when cooking chili is to layer your flavors.. building it as you go as opposed to dumping all the ingredients in at once, and also adding additional seasoning a little at a time in 30 minute increments.

a cup of black coffee, mexican chocolate and a mix of guajillo, new mexico, ancho, arbol peppers that I've made into a paste. I won a local chili cook off with that stuff.

Are we talking traditional with/without beans, white, meatless, etc. My wife makes some awesome chili, have to admit I like green chile chicken stew moreso than traditional chili.

black Beans, ground turkey, wick fowlers 2 alarm mix, bell pepper, onions, celery, garlic, canned tomatoes. I leave out the salt packet and the maze powder, let it simmer it will thicken enough.

its good, its hot, its low fat, its high in fiber, I like it, goes well over pasta.
