Personal Notes:
This chili won 2nd place at a regional contest. The slight sweetness balances the spicyness to make a more complex flavor than most chliis. We often substitute ground turkey for the ground beef for a slightly healthier chili, and I always pour mine over top noodles for that childhood classic feeling.
