Colony Mountain Chili
My husband created this chili for a local cooking contest, and it won the People's Choice award. It's loaded with beef, Italian sausage, tomatoes and beans and seasoned with chili powder, cumin and red pepper flakes for zip.

This is the only chili recipe we use now!! Everywhere we take it everyone loves it and wants the recipe! Thank you for a great recipe!
Best chili I’ve ever had!!!
This chili is amazing! My family loves it. It's better when you use the cut-up sirloin steak, but I've substituted lean ground beef in a pinch and it's still excellent. Highly recommend.
Just added this to my list of recipes, but had marked it in Oct/Nov 2004 Taste of Home Magazine as Very Good to Excellent. Guess I need to make again to refresh m memory.
Best chili I have ever had in my life! Will make this again and again and again....
This is basically the same way I make chili, but I've never written it down. I find that the slow cooker melds the flavors much better than stove top! Good job!!
I've won 3 out of 3 annual chili cookoffs with variations on this recipe (I vary it each year). It's the best "base recipe" I've found. The sirloin really make it stand out from most entrants.
Used leftovers to stuff tortillas for Red Chili Burritos. My family LOVED them. Excellent recipe!
I love this chili! I had been looking to try a recipe that uses beef cubes...my husband kept insisting chili needed ground beef. But after trying this, we all loved it! The first time I made it, I did as suggested with the sausage links, but found it seemed to soupy. Now I cut the sausage out of the casings and brown like I would ground beef. This recipe is a winner!
My husband made this recipe for a chili cook-off several years ago & won 1st place. He's made it 3 times since, & wins every time. This is a great "man" chili w/ lots of meat & spice.
