I actually made this chili a week or so ago. It isn't my recipe, it's Emeril Lagasse's. I added a few more beans, green pepper and chopped tomatoes rather than the tomato paste, but it's a good foundation to start with. You can then tweak it to your own tastes. My family thought it was pretty good, too.
