I made this chili the other day and it was excellent. I did add more salsa, garlic and green chili's as the contributor suggested. This was even better the next day. I had never thought about using pork and beans in chili before. I am now out of ground elk meat, but will definitely make this chili again using ground beef and maybe some ground sausage. Thank you for the recipe!
