Simmer for 45+ minutes. Cool. Eat the next day on potatoes, as chili, with noodles, chip dip, or whatever you want.
Well, I had 'this' chili at the Purdue Memorial Union for student employee appreciation day and it was PHENOMENAL! Flavorful, rich, just awesome.
And then I got the recipe and made it at home and it was... okay...
I learned from the chef that you should caramelize the onion first and don't leave out the green peppers! It is also likely the chef did the spices a little bit different since he's been doing this so long.
Overall - it was awesome at PMU, but this.. meh. Back to the cutting board.
