I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili turned out really watery.

This was the worst chili I've ever had. It was bland and flavorless.

This chili was a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but this chili was surprisingly mild. I really enjoyed the combination of flavors.

I made this chili for a potluck and it was a hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the smoky flavor from the chipotle peppers.

This was great! I love that it's a one-pot meal. I also appreciated the flexibility of the recipe - I didn't have any celery on hand, so I used an extra carrot instead. It still turned out delicious.
