This is a really good basic chili recipe. As it is, it could probably be served for lunch at the local nursing home. But I tweak it quite a bit. In fact, I think it was designed to be tweaked. I usually cut a steak into chunks. You can use beef or game or whatever you have in the freezer. If I am making it for myself I load it with hot peppers, but you can go anywhere in between if your spouse won't tolerate a little heat. If someone wants to give it a try, assuming the photos are legible, that dose of Cocoa powder is really important. Also, lots of folks say that they add the beans in the beginning. Well, they just get really really soft. But maybe some people like it that way. I'm just wondering if there's any reason I couldn't smoke this at a low temperature, say 180 to 200?
