    Congratulations and awesome recipe. I do a lot of BBQ (smoked low & slow) and make a BBQ chili using left over beef or pork and roasted peppers. I got to try the roasted garlic the next time I make it. That would kick butt.

    The liquid smoke, the thick cut bacon, roasted garlic, AND the tabasco "chipotle" or smoked makes the smoke flavor that really creates a unique finish.
