Cu's Chili
"I found this recipe about 25 years ago in a consumer report magazine. They were trying to find the best can chili recipe. They came up with their own and this is it. I have made this for years. It is really good. If you like it hot like I do. Add cayenne pepper or tabasco sauce."

I love this Chile receipe. Have been making it for years now. When serving I also add some shredded jack cheese and sprinkle a little Louisiana tabasco sauce. It’s wonderful. Thanks -
Thanks so much. I have been making this for years but lost my recipe. It's a family favorite... I sub red bell pepper. -
I really enjoyed this spicy chili. It was one of the best tasting chili's I've had in a long time. I didn't have green bell peppers, so I just added some celery instead, but next time I'll be sure to make this chili with some bell peppers. I think this chili would also be good as a topping for hot dogs (a.k.a.chili dogs.) Teresa, I wish I could give this recipe more than 5 stars, as that's how good it is, plus it's one mighty tasty chili. Awesome chili, thanks for sharing the recipe! -
This is a great chili recipe, even DH gave this 5 stars!!! I made this as written except I used one can of light red kidney beans and one of northern beans(what I had on hand), and I cut back on the amount of green pepper, as DH isn't a huge fan of it, but didn't seem to mind the amount I put in this chili. I also really liked using crushed tomatoes, no chunks!! Thanks for sharing the recipe Teresa!! Made for "For Your Consideration" tag game. -
Awesome tasting chili and easy to put together. I used red bell pepper instead of green and mixed beans instead of kidney beans with great results. It was even better the next day!

<p>? Hi! My name is Teresa.? My husband and I like to take RV trips but it seems lately we just us it for vintage motorcross races. I enjoy hiking, snowshoeing, have done some rock climbing but age is creeping up on my poor old bones. Anything to do with the outdoors I enjoy, so why do I live in rainy Washington state? We have 2 wonderful children, both grown. My son lives in LA and my daughter and her husband recently moved back in the area with their little boy...our grandson... who just turned?5 years old. We have a granddaughter who lives close by...she just turned 23 this year. She's a sweetheart.? Life is good when you have a son and a?daughter and they?gift?you with a granddaughter and grandson. :)??</p>
