Just bookmarked for a future cook. My wife doesn't like Chili either and judging by the list of ingredients I would be eating this stuff by myself for about a month or so. :) Might have to cut in half .. but gotta have some. ;D
Hey Curt, My dad is coming in town this weekend so I am making a pot.
? about the chili. Is the corn meal just to thicken?

Yep,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I like a thick, eat with a fork, no need for crackers kinda chili ;D
Thats what I thought. Is that what gives it the brownish tint or is that from the deer. I am going to use your recipe as the base and add to it to make it my own. I am sub. the deer for GB and adding some left over pork scrap from ribs and boston butt that I have been saving in the freezer. I also prefer lees bean so should I only use 1 can of beans?
Thanks
That brownish tint is most likely from the beef broth,,,,,I make my broth on the strong side ;D
One can of beans would work,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if'n ya dont like beans,,,,,,,,,,,,leave em out
I like beans just on the light side. More meat less beans for me. Thanks for all your help buddy!
