Kim Vaughn of Hampton, Virginia shares this thick, spicy chili that's served over rice. "The venison is tender, and the blend of spices, tomatoes and Italian hot sausage gives it plenty of zip," Kim notes.

This chili was a little bland for my taste, but it was still good. The meat was tender and the chili had a nice texture. I would recommend adding some more spices to taste.

I've made this chili several times and it's always a winner. The meat is always tender and the chili is so flavorful. I love that I can make it in my slow cooker, so it's easy to have a hot meal on a busy weeknight.

This chili was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. The meat was tender and the chili had a nice smoky flavor. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
