Yum!!! I made this chili as listed, using white kidney beans and a generous amount of srirachi sauce - one spicy kick! After the initial cooking, I cooked the pot of chili on low for about 3 hours. My husband said that this was the best chili I have made in a long time! We had this with multigrain tortilla chips and sour cream on top. Also had buns with a bit of cheese melted on them for dipping into the chili. Made for Pick A Chef 2011 for my adopted chef RagDoll90. Thanks! :)
