My Award Winning Molasses Chili image

Years ago when my son was in boy scouts I won the chili cook off with this recipe. The boys served as judges so I guess my secret ingredient of brown sugar gave them the sweet heat that they liked.

This chili is so delicious! I love the way the molasses and the chili peppers complement each other. I'll definitely be making this again soon.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chili turned out really watery. I think I must have added too much liquid.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I usually add a can of corn and a can of black beans to my chili.

I found this chili to be a bit bland. I think it could use more spices.

This chili is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less molasses next time.

I'm not usually a big fan of chili, but this recipe changed my mind. The molasses adds a delicious sweetness that really balances out the heat of the chili peppers. I'll definitely be making this again.

I made this chili for a party and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the unique flavor of the molasses. I will definitely be making this again for my next potluck.

This is the best chili recipe I've ever tried. The molasses gives it a rich, sweet flavor that perfectly complements the spiciness of the chili peppers. I'm definitely going to be making this again and again!
