For those who have eaten at the restaurant in NY and know how good the chili is, this is your chance to try and recreate their chili. Although you'll never get your chili to taste as good as the restaurant's, it will ease your cravings until you have the chance to go to NY again. These recipes are very easy to follow and the payoff is worth it. Every friend I've given this book to has made at least 3-4 different types of the chili and have liked them all. Tenderfoots be ware!!

This book features chili and other recipes that are authentic. The chili is not "dumbed down" with beans or other fillers. This is the real chuck wagon stuff with beef chuck rather hamburger.

I bought this book, because my neighbor had this book, and I wanted to try out a few new chili recipes, so she let me borrow her copy. There is WAY more than just recipes in here...how to's and tips on a better sauce and types of ingredients, etc. And, in addition to various traditional chili recipes, there is a lot of non-traditional recipes, as well as random things like desserts. I kept it for about a month before I figured I should buy my own and return my neighbor's copy...
