Everyone has a favorite chili recipe. I've been tweaking mine for over a decade and I think I finally found the taste I was looking for. This version uses canned beans but it can also be made with dried beans. If using dried beans, you'll want roughly 1 cup of each type of bean and allow them to soak overnight.
