Chipotles in adobo sauce add depth to the heat and a nice smokiness.

I use this kind. But not the whole can! Unless you really like it hot, or are making several gallons.

Sun-dried tomatoes are also interesting, slivered or chopped up.

"A new direction" for a known chocolate advocate?

My seasonings are pretty straightforward. Chipotles for sure, and maybe a little orange zest. But try varying your meats. Venison is my chili meat of choice. I've also made good chilis with seitan and sausage and llama. Green chili is good with a lighter meat.

Giboyeux's chili recipe-cum-personal narrative is my favorite thing on that thread. I love how it even comes with specific instructions of what kind of music you should listen to to achieve the proper mood.

I throw in all sorts of stuff. Molasses, espresso, whatever fits me. Paul is right about try varying the meats and testing out new stuff (though I dunno about the llama suggestion).

Some people put beer in their chili, but the secret is red wine.

Asafoetida.

I had a great chili last night that included chorizo bits and orange zest and Spanish olives.

that's verging on a Picadillo isn't it?

Oh god I may have to make picadillo soon.....

my main chili trick is dicing up a bunch of corn tortillas to use as thickener. I’ve never seen llama meat for sale.

My local butcher has ground camel, hmm.

Pretty sure the camel was not local but we are near the zoo so

does gorilla chili count as cannibalism

― El Tomboto, Wednesday, 18 December 2019 04:38 (four years ago) link

I've eaten llama in Bolivia but have never seen it anywhere else
