I usually put this in mine:

2 lbs. of ground beef (extra lean)
5 8 oz. cans of tomato sauce
2 packages of hot chili seasoning mix
1 1/2 links of andoille or hot sausage (Savoie's brand)
3 cans of Blue Runner New Orleans spicy beans
1 can of hot rotel (blended up to liquid consistency)

I don't like soup or stew like consistency chili, I want it to be a bit thicker like a paste.

I also don't like chunks of anything but meat. If there are any chunks like tomatoes or veggies, no go. I don't mind veggies or tomatoes in the chili, but that all better be well blended and dissolved.

Grew up using Louisville based Bloemers chili base for my chili. Usually pretty basic with beans, ground beef, and noodles (yes, Yankee-esque noodles). I enjoy chili without as well though and am trying to find a good non-ground beef alternative recipe that's not white chili.

I made a chili this week after a thread I read on here about rice in chili.

I used dry red beans soaked overnight, and the basics - chili powder, cumin, some ancho peppers ground up, onions, a little bell pepper, etc.

My "unusual" ingredients were coriander(pinch), oregano, cocoa powder, beef broth and coffee.

I usually overdo the chili powder, but didn't this time. It was the best I've made in a while. I did eat some over rice after all.

ETA: I do not like the idea of any kind of sausage in chili. I also tend to steer away from things like rotel, because I like to control the heat independently.
