    Incredible!
    I love this chili. Sometimes I add some ketchup with the tomatoes. I like a little extra vinegar too. But taste first-its pretty perfect as is. One final tip: do your prep first. The timing of this recipe is such that you will want to have everything chopped and ready to go. - 4/27/10
