Thanks, Sic.
:cheers:

ETA: And yes, the chili was good. 7 Chocolate Bhuts in there made for a good amount of heat too.
 
Nice, I'm not the only one that adds BBQ sauce to their chili. I like how it kinda sweetens the chili. If you would like to add another dimension to this, might I suggest using a smoked powder. It might add a subtle smoke flavor, depending how much you add. Not sure if you have tried that yet. I'm also gonna have to try the corn bread. That sounds awesome!

The sweetness of the BBQ sauce adds more depth to the flavor. I know it isn't the most traditional way of making chili, but I like what I like.

Thanks for the suggestion, and I will definitely be trying that the next time we make chili. I used 1 teaspoon of bhut powder for this recipe. I will substitute that with maybe 1 tablespoon of a smoked powder.
 
I was gonna knock the BBQ sauce in the chili... but i guess I oughta try it first indeed.

And 7 chocolate bhuts in one pot O chili, I'd say that would have some kick fo sho

Just make sure to use a BBQ sauce that you are already a fan of. If you like it, then chances are you will like it in chili.

As hot as it was, it was only a fraction of the heat level of fresh chocolate bhuts. Cooking with them really brings down the harshness of the burn.
