CLOSEWon my Company's Chili Cook Off with this Recipe.

It took five years, a variety of gimmicks but this recipe got me to the top. Out of a very experienced group of 20 competitors. This took top honors. Used fresh ground italian bulk pork sausage (4lbs) and fresh basil. Followed the recipe to a tee. Brown the bulk sausage till it's crisp. Drain in a strainer. Good to go.

everyone loves it.

I've never made this that it wasn't finished in one night - easy to double or triple, takes no time, I usually add more sausage or use the ground Johnsonville. We love this.
I tore this out of a Superbowl ad many years ago... What luck!

Love this recipe!
by Luie 5 months ago
I love this recipe! My husband and son love chili. I was looking for an alternative recipe and came upon this one. I sometimes slow cook it in the crockpot and feel that it really combines the flavors. My husband can't eat onions and even without them it's great.

Dissapointed
by Shaky 5 months ago
I made this recipe ver batum with the exception of the Yellow pepper which i didn't have. It came out super thick and the only thing you could really taste was the tomatoes. If I were to make it again(and I wouldn't) I would pass on the paste. It's just not neccessary. We are actually considering using the LO's as a spaghetti sauce. I even added a quater tsp. red pepper flakes and it was drowned out by tomatoes. No "bon appetete" here. I will continue to use JV sausage as I like the products but not this recipe. Shaky
