Best chili recipe! My husband loves sausage so I tried it at home and it was a success. I had a casino party at the house and decided to incorporate this dish to the menu

I gave this 3 instead of a 5 because I think that the ingredients are solid, but I think that the measurements are off. First, 2 cloves of garlic is NEVER enough 🙂 made it 4-6. I also think there should be a bit more Giardiniera; 3 Tbs or 9 tsp. Most importantly, I think there needs to be double the tomato sizes; use the normal 15oz cans. Though sausage in casings gives a nice texture to the chili, I prefer the casing removed. This allows the pork and beef to mix evenly. Finally, I don’t think you need to thicken it with flour. If you add enough tomatoes and allow the beans to cook slowly over time, the chili thickens nicely without flour and you shouldn’t need to add any water. I did all of my recommendations and the chili got rave reviews.
