Its Super bowl Sunday! WooHoo!!! This post should be called the Boy with the Green Soup Pot because Jason is taking over this week:) His friends are coming over to watch the big game and he wanted to make his famous chili for the occasion. I could not be happier, he doesn't cook for me very often and I love watching him work in the kitchen.
So which team are you rooting for?? Me? I don't really have a preference; I will be waiting for the commercials and halftime of course! I like football; it’s just that I am not really interested in either team this year. I guess if I HAD to choose, I would choose the Giants only because I would like to see Eli Manning win another Super Bowl. I don't think he gets the attention he deserves. I feel like he will always be standing in the shadow of his big brother, Peyton. So yeah.... GO Giants!
OK...on to the chili... this recipe makes a BIG batch so invite over your favorite peeps to share. I should also point out that this is a hearty, thick chili and has quite a bit of spice. If you are sensitive to spicy food, I would recommend leaving out the hot packet of chili spice.... if you like your chili a little on the soupy side, I would recommend adding in extra tomato sauce.
I hope I didn't make you cry at home because this chili looks so good. Go make it!!! It's so worth it, I promise :)
On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate this a 10. Not just because my husband made it! Truly, this chili is exactly what you want to eat on a cold day or watching football. We traditionally like to enjoy it on a crisp Halloween evening. It sticks to your ribs and the delicious flavor keeps you coming back for more even when you are full! It is definitely a crown-pleaser!
May your soup pot always be full!
