Very good, although I would have added a little salt to the rice, but the chili was delish

This was a hit. I've made this chili a few times for friends and family, and have had TOO many compliments! Much better than anything from a can, for sure.

This was my first attempt at chili and it was really good. I left out the beef broth, it had enough liquid so it didn't seem to need it. I also used ground turkey instead of ground beef. My husband and I ate it for days, it was so good!

This came out far too watery for me. Next time I would omit the beef broth and use a tsp. of beef base instead. Also, I would not serve over rice and I think a can of green chiles would improve the flavor significantly.

Making this chili again today for the 5th time. The best recipe I've found. I prefer chili beans but I do use the kidney beans as my husband prefers those. This recipe suits even my husband's picky chili tastes.

Awesome! I used black beans and only 1/2 of a large white onion...also made extra rice. It was terrific, even my kids loved it!

Easy and tasty recipe. Would suggest adding more spice to kick it up a notch.

I MODIFIED THIS A BIT. WE DONT LIKE KIDNEY BEANS SO WE USED BLACK BEANS AND WHITE NAVY BEANS. I ALSO MADE IT MORE SOUPY. THE RECIPE WAS VERY FLAVORFUL MY WHOLE FAMILY LOVED IT!
