I think the key to this recipe is that you need to start with dried beans. I used Anasazi dried beans. I cooked them for 45 minutes first & then added the other ingredients & cooked for another 45 minutes. I added ch. celery, 3 Tbsp. BBQ sauce, 1/2 cup of pulled pork & doubled the seasonings. - 8/10/09

I had to change this recipe to love it. I used half the amount of water, which also decreased cooking time. I used canned beans (two) and drained the liquid. Note: Using canned beans hikes up the sodium A LOT! I added about 1-2 tbsps of ketchup and it was perfect! I could eat this everyday. - 7/12/09

This is a good base reciepe. I changed it a little bit because I can't take real hot stuff. I didn't use the cloves, cayenne pepper, or the chiles. I added 8oz. of no added salt tomato sauce and maybe 2tsp. chili powder. I also used some sea salt. It came out great. I will use this reciepe again. - 10/2/07

Since I wanted chili, not soup, I used about a quarter of the water called for, and while the flavor was good, it was so spicy/hot I could barely eat it! I had to use sour cream to cool it off. It may have been so spicy because of the chili substitution I made, so I will add less chilis next time. - 12/22/09

I used canned beans and realized afterwards I should have used dried ones. But I just added one package of taco seasoning mix and made it into bean soup - and my goodness was it delicious. And SO easy, especially if you use canned beans and make soup of it. this is something I'll make again. - 10/19/09

I, too, prepared this recipe and am a novice when it comes to cooking so when this chili turned out watery, I figured I did something wrong. Even with all the spices, it was bland tasting. I had some hot BBQ sauce open from lunch and added a tablespoon just to get it down. Only made 1/2 recipe- Yea! - 7/14/09

Really bad ... I always eat everything and I didn't even bother ... cooked something else after putting this down the disposal. Like I say ... I eat and enjoy most anything but I think this recipe needs more directions and than just adding it all into the pot and cooking for 60 minutes. BAD BAD BAD - 7/12/09

This tasted more like a watery soup and the wrong combination of spices. Not very flavorful, just spicey (and not in the good way). My husband and I took a few bites each then dumped the rest out in our woods. I will not be making this again; I feel my time (and those ingredients) were wasted. - 9/14/12

As I was putting the ingredients in the slow cooker, I realized that I was basically making bean soup, so I added a can of diced tomatoes and only 6 cups of water instead of the recommended 8 which seemed like way too much. It was still awful. There wasn't much flavour and my husband wouldn't eat it - 11/12/09

I used the Quick Soak method (bring to a boil, boil for 2 minutes, sit for 1 hour). Put the beans in slow cooker with the rest of the ingredients except cut back the water and added only enough to cover. Cooked for 36 hours! Added 1 TBSP each seasoned salt, Frank's Hot Sauce and BBQ sauce. Edible! - 10/29/09

so to fix a watery soup...add spice & simmer longer! I just made this soup and it was GREAT! Granted, it really did need a lot more spice, I about doubled the cumin and garlic, and added a good amount of pepper and my favorite hot sauce, but it was great! also added tempeh and smart ground...yum! - 9/19/09

Soup was very good, though left out the chilli peppers and substituted green peppers. We cooked onions, garlic and peppers in small dab of olive oil with cloves, sage, and basil until carmel like, then added 1/2 c of canned chicken breast, then the canned beans. Last the hot water. Had Oat Bread! - 5/28/09

Same issues as the rest of the majority and I used dry beans. To salvage this meal I added some ground turkey, canned diced tomatoes and garlic powder, onion powder and even some seasoned salt. I used green pepper instead of chilis. After all that, I figured the nutrition and it still was fine. - 3/24/09

I'm glad I read everyones comments before making this dish it helped when it came to adding the water. I used a jar of beans and added 2 cups of water. I left out the cloves, couldn't find my green chilis and simmered only 30 mins. and added half stalk of celery with 10 baby carrots. We liked ok. - 2/9/09

I'm making it, probably should have read others' reviews first. It smells really good, but after an hr+ of simmering, its like soup. I made a roux from the water and added that, still soupy. Added 1/2 a packet of chili mix, and veggie "meat" crumbles. AND boiling the heck out of it to evap. water. - 2/6/09
