  1. I made some slight modifications, because I like mine a little spicier, and maybe a little "healthier". See Curt's Five Alarm Touchdown Chili. The bacon was a surprise, but really added a lot. I used some different chilis, but then I like it hotter. This will be slightly hotter than average, but then again...it's chili. This one is alittle labor intensive, but certainly worth the wait. If "hot" is a warning light for you, keep some milk handy (other beverages can just intensify the heat, especially beer). Enjoy!
