Notes:

Please note that while there are things I could have changed in this recipe to make it conform to my own preferences, I chose to be faithful to present this recipe as I found it. If you'd like to use this recipe but make it more healthy by substituting some ingredient(s), by all means do so! For example, you might prefer to use honey or molasses instead of brown sugar or homemade BBQ sauce instead of store bought sauce.

As an alternate for the canned beans (pinto, kidney) and frozen beans (lima), you could soak and then cook dried ones and add them to the recipe. Also, you can use different kinds of beans if you prefer. Romano beans make a nice substitute for pinto beans.

This chili is nice served with cornbread or cornmeal muffins, and a green salad.
