Okay, my turn.

Compared to Buzz's efforts, mine seems to be less intricate. Basically surveyed a bunch of recipe's to get the gist of ingredients.

I basically used the standard blend of spices for the chili powder (ground chili, nutmeg, allspice, cumin, etc.)

The big difference (that might distinguish my chili) was that the all of the ingredients were organic. Even the 15 pounds of ground beef (made nearly 4 gallons of chili in one big pot) was sourced from an organic farmer friend of mine (one of the chief test pilot's where I work) from whom I bought half a cow (organic grass fed, no growth hormones's and minimal if at all use of antibiotics). There was very little beef fat from all this ground beef. Seems I read somewhere that grass fed beef has less of a a certain dangerous kind of fat, I notice that it doesn't feel as 'heavy' when I eat it. I ended up using it to saute the onions.

The garlic, onions, bell peppers were all fresh chopped. I put about 2 ounces (so far...it's still simmering) of 87% dark chocolate.

There, I fixed that for ya . . . . .
