Got this recipe in a 2004 Taste of home magazine. It's really nice on a cold winters day. I know some wouldn't consider it chili because of the beans but it is really good.

MOUNTAINMAN CHILI

This recipe has been in my family for a long time. In fact, my mom used to can this and I would lake it on Boy Scout trips. Open a couple of cans of beans, dump a jar of this in it, and the whole troop chowed down. Good on chili-burgers, nachos, whatever.

Tips:

Choose the right type of chili peppers. Anaheim and poblano peppers provide a mild heat, while serrano and habanero peppers add more spice. If you're not sure how hot you want your chili to be, start with a mild pepper and add more to taste.
Use a variety of beans. This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans.
Don't overcook the chili. Chili is best when it's simmered for a long time, but if you overcook it, the beans will become mushy and the chili will lose its flavor.
Add toppings to your chili. This is a great way to customize your chili and make it your own. Some popular toppings include shredded cheese, sour cream, and guacamole.

Conclusion:

Colony Mountain Chili is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold day. With its combination of beans, peppers, and spices, this chili is sure to warm you up from the inside out.
