This is excellent chili if you are looking for a different recipe. My family gets tired of the same old dinners so I wanted to find a different recipe to an old favorite. I made this for my teenage son and his friend and they both ate 2 big bowls and loved it. It is not as spicy as you would think so if you like a kick to your chili you may want to increase the jalepenos. The sweet taste offsets some of the spice. I was reluctant to make this because I thought the combination of cinnamon and honey would be bad but it was outstanding. My family has asked me to make this again but to turn up the heat.

I was looking for a recipe to use peppadew peppers (piquant sweet pepper) and this seemed worth an experiment. I used the peppadews instead of the jalpenos and took out the cinnamon, other that that recipe as written, this is on our favorites list now and will be quite the regular. Can't wait to have it again, thanks

My husband and I love chili and we like trying different chili recipes. This one is very different. It tasted sweeter than I thought it would, even though the title does say "sweet". It sort of exceeded my expectation in that regard. All-in-all, very flavorful and something I would make again, when I was in the mood for something different. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

I am not usually a chili fan, but my friend wanted to do a chili cook off so I tried this one... First it won the contest, and now I am a big fan of chili!! I substituted 1 lb of ground beef and 1 lb of italian sausage, and did one yellow and one orange bell pepper, and instead of 2 cans of chili beans I did one and one can of maple cured bacon baked beens. So good!!!! I am going to make another batch this weekend.
