The wife wants chili for dinner. I usually just go the quick easy Lawrys chili pack and follow the recipe on the back. But it is getting kind of old, I'm looking for something different. Any ideas on how to spice up the Lawrys recipe? Or better yet, share your chili recipe.

about 3 pounds of stew meat or boneless country ribs, cubed about 1-inch or so.
1 large can diced tomatoes
1-5 chipotle peppers, packed in adobo (1 is fairly mild, 5 is thermonuclear), finely minced
1 large onion, diced
1 large bell pepper, diced
1-1/2 Tbsp cumin
2 Tbsp chili powder
salt and pepper to taste.
put all ingredients in a crock pot for about 6 hours on low, or 4 hours on high. slower cooking means more tender meat.
the spice measurements are approximate. you may want more or less. experiment as you go.
here's the super secret part: add about 2 Tbsp peanut butter, and 1/4 to 1/3 a disc of mexican chocolate (i use "abuelita" brand), grated. the chocolate adds a smoky sweetness, and the peanut butter adds a rich bottom end.

Turkey chili is where it's at. I always used to make it with ground beef, and then one day I decided to go with turkey. Will never make it with ground beef again.
Don't use any chili pre-mixed packs though. I go straight from scratch. Don't use any measurements for the spices, I just go by taste.
1 large can of tomato sauce
1 large can of crushed tomatoes
1 small can of tomato paste
1 can of mixed chili beans
1 can of kidney beans
1 can of brown beans in tomato sauce
Ground turkey breast
1 med. onion
1 green & 1 red pepper
3 med. mushrooms
2 cloves of garlic
chili powder
cumin
paprika
hot pepper flakes
salt & pepper
a few dashes of Frank's hot sauce
a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce
half a beer
I don't cook the veggies, just the ground turkey. I let all that cook away in a slow cooker for 6 to 8 hours.

Super Bowl Chili - I make it every year for the annual Super Bowl Party:
*Chicken - BBQ it first (this is the key) and then shred - I actually marinate it in Terryaki
*Kidney Beans
*Chilli Beans
*Pinto Beans w/Jalepeno
*Readi-cut Tomatoes (Italian or Mexican Style or Both)
*Diced Onions
*Diced Olives
*Diced Serrano Pepper
*Corn
*White Beans
*Chili Powder (to taste - I like the Chipotle for a little extra flavor)
*Garlic, Salt, & Pepper to taste
Basically combine everything into a pot and add different style of beans and items until it looks right. Dump in the shredded chicken and simmer for a few hours and spice to liking......
We bring pack packets of the mix from Ohio or we have my husbands family mail us some when we're out. Gold Star Chili or Blue Ash. Great stuff. Can't remember the name of the other place we eat at all the time. Love this stuff.
And you add whatever you want to make it s 2,3,4 or 5 way. Served over thin spaghetti noodles.
One packet of the mix, 1.5 pounds ground beef, tomato paste nad 4 cups of water. Let it simmer, use a potato masher to really get the meat in tiny pieces.
Good stuff. I can't find any packets of the mix, but if you want some, I can mail it to you for the cost of shipping.
ETA: Its Skyline Chili I was thinking off.
