When I'm in the mood for chili, this is the recipe I turn to. We printed it back in 1989, and, in my opinion, it can't be equaled. The only ingredient I don't usually have on hand is the ground lamb, but you can use ground beef instead, and it still delivers. -- Associate Food Editor Maureen Callahan
