looking for a chili recipe

[Smokin Gator]

Here is mine... if you can get some leftover brisket it really makes a difference. Your chili powder is also a huge difference maker. Most store brands are fair at best. I like to make my own, but it is a pain. If you have the time order some from Penzey's Spices. There hot is HOT!!!
