If you’re looking for spices in Park Slope, check out Divine Taste on 7th Ave between Carroll and Garfield. They have a fantastic selection of spices and pastes and such. Plus, the owners are really great too.

this sounds good.
when you say “adjust spices”… im guessing that’s when you add some cumin to the chili. how much? 1 teaspoon?

sorry! I’m new to cooking

I am going to try this, hopefully it won’t kill the husband. If you are stuck for a particular chili, you can usually sub chipotle chilis in adobo sauce, avail in a can in any latino market usually. Just drain a bit and freeze the leftovers. They add a wonderful smokiness. I think that most stores also carry tabasco chipotle sauce as well, which could do in a pinch.

I made this and tinkered a little due to what I had on hand (tomato sauce but no tomatoes, ground turkey but no crumbles, etc), and it was still marvelous. No wonder it’s a prize winner.

[...] After the pig eating, we began to tire of the fratty crowd that was quickly dominating the place, and headed across the street to the 4th Avenue Pub. It was a perfect bar to end the night–they serve a generous selection of drafts, had a free old-time popcorn maker in the back and an oldschool video game machine (to the delight of Ms. Pac champ Karol), and at some point in the early morning, the bartender offered our table a few slices of an apple pie that his mom made. We all agreed it was the best apple pie we’d ever had. I’m not sure if it had something to do with the fact that it was 2am and we had drank a hearty variety of drinks throughout the night and had already eaten a lot of free greasy stuff. But somehow everyone was convinced that I needed to extract the bartender’s mom’s recipe because it was just that good. [...]

Not too spicy…I seeded most of the jalepenos and kept a few seeded for heat, but you can easily take out all the seeds first and it shouldn’t be spicy!

Wow that looks truly amazing! Have been thinking about chili since Homesick Texan posted an amazing sounding recipe a few weeks back, but the boyfriend has refused adamantly to give chili a try. How spicy is this, though? Neither of us are huge spicy food fans. Thanks for sharing!!!
