This was far and away the best chili I've made and probably even had. Replacing the cayenne with ancho last week and only using jalapeños for heat was a terrible mistake (chili was still good though). This time I used a single hab, two serranos, two jalapeños, some green chiles, a bunch of cayenne as far as 🌶️ goes and it worked out perfectly. I also used 6tsp of smoked paprika this time instead of the 2 last time which I think made a big difference and I doubled the ancho too. Phenomenal mixture of bullshit. Will try with corn in a few weeks and see if it's better or worse. I'm chili'd out for now though.
Thanks for coming on this journey with me.

Cornbread is the only carb appropriate for chili.

All food tastes the same to me tbh. Need to start to learn how to make pasteries. Like i make stews and stir frys but I always just put tons of spices on them so I don't actually taste the ingredients anyway.

Spice heads be complaining about dishes having no flavor when you have them stand on their own merits and don't drown them in powder slop
Then they come out and admit to Ls like this

Do the coacoa powder next. You won't regret it. It goes amazingly with the ancho and paprika.

Oh right a few people here and irl have told me to put some dark chocolate in
I'm not entirely sure how I feel about that but once the corn question is settled I think this will be perfect so I'm ok with modifying from there

Do it. It amplifies savory flavors.

Does it temper the spiciness a bit? What I really want to do is kick my dad's chili's butt and he isn't a fan of lots of heat because old, but this flavor is excellent :(

Not really. You will probably have to ditch the habanero or use half of one.
The only way to cut spiciness is sugar (gay ingredient for baking), citrus (not really meant for chili), or milk products (sour cream and cheese is a topping so you don't want to do that).
You could add a bit of brown sugar or honey which are nice ingredients for chili, but don't over do it. Get a handle on your peppers.

Chili is so easy though. You only have to chop a few veggies and throw everything in a pot.

Its not about the prep, its about the time. Doesnt good chili take hours?

You want to slow cook it ideally, but you don't need to baby sit it.

Thats my issue. Oh do i want to wait hours for this chili to be ready or do I want to make a sauce in 20 mins and then toss some chicken around for 10 and eat? Fast is the way to go but I fricking LOOOOOOVE a good chili.

Is it just me or does chili taste better after 1-2 days in the fridge? Also, pressure cooking it seems to make a difference in texture

Fresh is best then day 2 is second best I think
I do all chili in the slow cooker because I'm lazy but I honestly think it tastes better this way so

I'll send you my treasonous chili recipe next time if you'd like. I won an office chili contest with it.
it's particularly treasonous because I'm in texas and it has beans in it. it uses blended chiles en adobo for a weird smoky spicy flavor

should post the recipe as you refine it. or at least at the end.
as for the corn bread idk about in, but carbs are good on the side i think
italian bread works good, spooning some chili on it and eating it that way
