The Ultimate Chili
I am very fussy when it comes to chili and have attended many chili contests and cook-offs in my life (which is just too much fun :)), as well as tasted many-a-chili recipe (although I've only ever had the opportunity to compete in one friendly contest). But as far as my taste buds are concerned, this Pork and Beef Stovetop Chili Recipe has never been beat; it's the best chili I have ever had (with the best secret ingredient)! And if I ever have the opportunity to compete in another chili competition or cook-off, I will definitely be using this recipe!

So if you're looking for a classic or traditional chili recipe or something new and unique, you can't go wrong with any of these award-winning chili recipes!
