Texas Chili With All the Fixin's image

A great chili with a lot of depth to the flavours thanks to the chipoltle chilies. This is a nice mix of spice, sweet and smokey that works well for the whole family. I found this recipe in the Bride & Groom First and Forever Cookbook. I suggest you make it as stated in the recipe the first time before tweaking including all the fixin's, you won't be dissapointed! The chili itself isn't spicy its the Jalapenos you add on so the heat can be adjusted per bowl. Enjoy!
