I am making this recipe now. For added nutrition I am adding small diced carrots, celery and some orange bell pepper. I can’t wait for dinner time.
Hi Lisa, I love your additions! I bet it was amazing π Ruthie
I canβt find the original recipe!!! Bakerette.com is not coming up! Thx!
Hi Regina. . . we apologize for any inconvenience as our site went under construction for a few hours today. The printable recipe is working again and we are checking on the link. Thanks for letting us know and we hope you enjoy this recipe- itβs so good! π Thank you! Ruthie
I have been making the same chili recipe for years and wanted to try a different kind. I came across yours because of the chunky sirloin. It did not disappoint!! Garnished with avocado and shredded cheddar cheese. It was so good. Thank you for the change up!
We are so happy to hear that you loved it! We hope it’ll become a regular too π
This chili recipe rocks and is perfect for this time of year. I’ve received so many compliments on it. I, myself, was not a big chili fan, but am now because of this recipe. Great job!
Thank you so much!! It is amazing and I’m glad you’ve been enjoying it. I have to say it’s also nice to meet another “Ruth” as it’s not too often I do. . . so happy to share such a wonderful name with you! xoxo~ Ruthie

Thank you so much Molly! I’m so happy to hear that you love this recipe so much π I’ll check out the contest too. xoxo~ Ruthie
Can’t wait to make this tomorrow! Do you think a chocolate/coffee stout will taste okay? If not, I’ll go the beef broth route.. either way, it looks so delicious!
I am sure the coffee stout will work just fine- if everyone eating it enjoys the subtle coffee taste that it will bring (I would love it) if not then go with the more gentle flavor of beef broth… you’ll love this recipe!! xoxox~ Ruthie
I just found this on Pinterest, but I had to add it to our list of chili recipes. Thanks for posting!
You’ll love it! It’s perfect for winter time… thank you for the kind comment π xoxo~ Ruthie
