– I used hot italian sausage instead of pork sausage
– No celery
– For Cayenne pepper to taste, I used fresh cayennes and tabasco peppers from my garden
– I added 2 different hot sauces that I liked to heat it up futher (I multiplied the recipe for quanitity and I think the shear volume of it diminished the heat of the fresh peppers used)
– Melinda Naga Jolokia (Very Hot, but great flavor, use sparingly)
– Pain is Good Jalapeno Hot Sauce ( I like this one because it is more carrot/vinegar based, but still provides some heat)

I think you have to go for that middle ground where people’s mouths feel the heat but keep them coming back for more!

Its nothing but spices you would mix yourself already mixed for you. But you go ahead and mix your own if it’s that important to you. Just leave your negative comments to yourself.

A travesty really. Put together your own seasoning and then you can compete.

I made a couple of modifications to it that I wanted to pass along.

I added a package of Hot Italian Sausage as well as the country pork sausage. I also chose the diced tomatoes that were Italian spiced (seasoned with Italian spices).

This recipe (with those two changes resulted in the best pot of chili that I have ever had! My kids ate several bowls of it – and that never happens :-).

It was even better the next day (I made a lot!). The seasoning all had a chance to meld together and when I heated it up in the microwave at work – it was awesome!

This chili recipe is highly recommended! I can see why it was an award winning chili cookoff recipe!
