i don't like chunks of tomatoes so i blended the can of tomatoes in juice and it turned out amazing. love the recipe, thank you. and i agree with sarah Doyle that i would love to have ideas of what to serve with chili, corn bread gets old.

This chili was great and easy! My husband and i loved it! I put half the beans and 1lb of sausage and 1lb of beef. I also left out the stewed tomatoes. Great for the winter and lots of leftovers! Definatly the best chili!

So Good! I put in my crock pot on high for 4 hours. I didn't have enough room to put in 2 (28oz) cans of the diced tomatoes so I only did one. Worked GREAT!

I just printed Jamie's Chili recipe and am gonna cook in the crockpot for supper tomorrow night. It looks pretty easy and can't wait to try it!! We are from Summerville, SC, but have relatives in Bluffton and we visit quite frequently. We love going to downtown Savannah to take the ferry over to River street. The food must be fantastic in Paula's restaurant because we can never get in to enjoy it!! I love the history in savannah, as we took a tour of it once for our anniversary. My favorite candy shop is,of course, River Street Sweets. We have a lot of history here in Charleston as well, and it is growing every day!! Thank you, Paula for sharing recipe's to your fans. May God bless all of you in a very special way, Love, Betty Fahl

I always just "made chili" the way my Mama did for all of my adult life and it was "really good." I believe in Paula Deen because her taste buds are southern like ours... Sooo about three yrs ago I was seeing what she had to say about chili. I saw this 5 star recipe... I can assure you that it is THE BEST chili I or my family has ever TASTED. The combo of sausage/beef seems now a no-brainer, but I never added sausage before. It is PERFECT the way it is... I buy the huge containers of all the beans called for and premeasure proper amounts for later in a gallon ziplock, freeze all together, and have ready for the next 2-3 cookings..Would not change a thing about the recipe except for doubling it....
Thanks Paula for this wonderful addition to my FAVORITES........

Love this chili! I used stewed tomatoes instead of whole tomatoes. I'm a tomato lover, but many I know & feed aren't, so I used only one can of stewed tomatoes, but the same amounts of everything else. I also cooked on high in my crockpot for an hour & then low for 2-3 hours. Let's just say...it was gone within the hour of it being done! ![]()

Great recipe. I made it exactly by recipe first time. Loved it but mine got too thick and didn't have enough kick. I left the celery out and added several jalepenos. Also left out the tomatoe paste. It was so good I entered in our local chili cookoff and actually won.
By Cheryll on March 21, 2011
Jammie you win, with the chili , Just wonderfull.
By KATHLEEN JOUVENAUX kljbirdlover@hotmail.com kljbir on March 08, 2011
Why so many tomatoes? It became something other than chili with the addition of all those tomatoes. Tomatoes should just lend some flavor to the chili, not be the standout ingredient. But on the positive side, I'm sure it made it a lot healthier!
By Laurie on February 09, 2011
Way too many tomatoes and not enough meat. However, the taste was good. Thanks.
