This is the best chili recipe I have ever tried. I'm not sure where the recipe originated, but it is amazing! Sometimes, I don't bother adding all four cans of the kidney beans and it still turns out wonderful. Once anyone tastes this chili, they will be begging for the recipe!! Enjoy!

I, too, liked the added texture of having steak chunks as well as ground beef in this chili. I cut the brown sugar in half. I think 1/2 cup would have made it way too sweet. For the chili sauce called for, I used 1/4 cup chili powder. Doing everything else as instructed. Very tasty chili, indeed! Thank you, Amanda, for sharing this here!

    excellent chili! i love the fact that this recipe calls for both steak chunks and ground beef! i also really loved the addition of beer and coffee. i omitted the sugar since we don't like sweet stuff. i used black beans that i pressure cooked the day before, serrano peppers and poblanos, and i also added a few tablespoons of chili powder. thanks for the winner chile recipe!! oh and i used the crockpot!

    Hi Amanda: I just wanted to let everyone know that I used this recipe for a Chili Cook-Off and won by division for Most Unique Chili - yes, I actually beat out the White Chili recipe for the first time. It was a lot of fun to make and people were surprised to learn the ingredients. I followed the recipe exactly and would recommend cooking it for a sligthly longer period of time, storing it in the fridge overnight, and then reheating it. It really brought out a lot of flavor. Thanks for the recipe.

    Fabulous chili! It was indeed the best I'd tasted. Served it with cornbread and a dollop of sour cream on top. Left out the 4 chili peppers and subbed chili powder for chili sauce, and it still tasted great.
