I ordered some of their chili seasoning and just made a big pot the other day.
Each packet is supposed to be good for 2# of meat. I intended to use 4# of meat so I used one packet each of their Texas Chili and Ghost Pepper Chili.
I ended up with 2# of smoke brisket flat cut into 1/2 “ cubes and 3# of ground venison breakfast sausage (made with Leggs seasoning) so a total of 5# of meat went into the mix. I figured the extra pound of meat would help tame the ghost pepper burn a bit.
I followed the recommended ingredients for 2 batches of chili with some exceptions.

Instead of tomato soup I used diced tomatoes. I also added 1# of diced mushrooms and 3 slice jalapeño peppers for the flavor not necessarily for the heat.
After simmering for a couple of hours in went two cans of dark red kidney beans (I was born in Texas but still like the beans! So sue me
)
This batch of chili had some of the best flavor I’ve ever made but it’s way past my comfort level for heat!!!!
I thought that a mix of the two spice packets would land somewhere in the middle but it was way over to the ghost pepper side.
I can’t eat it alone but over some cooked rice it’s great. You definitely need a beach towel to wipe the sweat as your pores open up!
I'll definitely use the Sucklebusters again.
