This chili is a bit on the spicy side, for those that bothers. My recommendation, if you can't tolerate heat is to carefully remove the ribbing and seeds from your jalapeño before you chop and add it, and perhaps just buy a smaller one from the store. Ours was medium in size and since I LOVE heat I put the whole thing in, ribs, seeds and all. Even with that, I would only classify it as 'pretty spicy' though, not really spicy.
Nice thing about chili, make it early, and just let it simmer!
Garnish with a little sour cream.(Especially if you wanna cool it down a degree or two!)
I made just a few changes, I used two 10 oz cans of diced tomatoes w/ juice, probably more like one pound of steak, and I added a 15oz can of 'small red beans'. I like my chili, bean heavy. Call me a masochist. We also like to eat our chili with corn chips. Mmmm.
So enough blabbing, here you go...
