With a 4.5 star rating, I expected a decent chili. It doesn't taste bad, and it smells WONDERFUL while it's cooking... but it is so bland we couldn't eat it. We didn't want heat, we just wanted flavor. We wanted CHILI. I made it for the Superbowl since it made a large quantity, the whole gang agreed it has no flavor. I ended up salvaging it with more salt, cumin and two envelopes of chili seasoning. I will have to keep looking for a crockpot chili recipe that measures up to our expectations.
