CHEF JOHN'S ITALIAN SAUSAGE CHILI



Chef John's Italian Sausage Chili image

I've added pork to ground beef in chili before, but I've never tried it with all Italian sausage, and I loved the results. We Italian'd this up even more with cannellini beans and a touch of basil, but other than that, it's a fairly classic chili. Garnish with sour cream, avocado, red onion, and basil.
