I wanted a nice and meaty chili. Oh, I still needed beans though. This is an awesome meaty, chunky, hearty chili that we all loved.
This is said to be Jimmy Fallons recipe. I changed it quite a bit and so did Veronica so it really isn't his anymore, now is it? I found it here if you'd like the original recipe.
Of course, I had to serve it with the same buttery beer bread that she used. They both went well together and we all loved it!

Mmmmm! We love chili! I'm thinking I need to make one more pot of chili before summer. Maybe I'll try this one! :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes we just need a bowl of chili. I love that you make it with lean turkey making it healthier. Using your slow cooker is what I really want to try. Thank you Debbi.

ReplyDeleteI love chili and this one looks really good :)
ReplyDeleteA chunky, meaty chili is my favorite kind!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited this takes Ancho chili powder as I had a heck of a hard time finding it and finally did and now I'm looking for recipes to use it. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteOne can never tire of chili! This looks great.
ReplyDeleteDebbi, this looks great. I love chili like this one.
ReplyDeleteJimmy Fallon cooks? Somehow I can't see it. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's been chilly here...so I guess chili is called for! LOL! I had some sweet potato chili today but it didn't hold a candle to this stuff. I like that you lightened it up b/c the original recipe was so fatty. Thanks for the shout out, Debbi!
ReplyDeleteIt's almost like playing a game of telephone and so much fun to see how the recipe has evolved over time as every person makes changes! The chili sounds delicious!
