Ashley of Cheese Curd in Paradise invited the Festive Foodie gang to join her in a Chili Cook Off saying:

"The temps are coming down and it is time for chili! It is the perfect time of year to roll-up our sleeves and make the best of the best chili. Beef, pork, bean, turkey, chicken, vegetarian, and vegan are all welcome, BUT it must be chili."

Here is what those that decided to join in the fun brought to the table today.......

I'm very excited to try some of these recipes.  Doesn't BBQ Beef Brisket chili sound divine?  Or how about Buffalo Chicken Chili?  That sounds amazing to me.  And I have to say that the Buckeye chili has caught my attention too.  I wonder if there is peanut butter and chocolate in that chili?

My recipe caught my eye when I was flipping through an old issue of Cuisine at Home.  I go through these magazines every year and am always surprised when something jumps out at me that I passed right by the first hundred times I looked at it.

I love Fajitas and the idea of Steak Fajita Chili was very appealing to me.  I also was drawn to this recipe because October is Texas Wine Month, yes that is a thing, and I thought the flavors of this chili would complement a wine from Texas that I had in my wine fridge.

You can tell Fall is here because Chili is perfect for this time of year.  I recently posted this amazing Roasted Garlic Turkey Chili.  And if you are serving up bean salsa while watching the game this weekend make sure you save some so you can make this Leftover Bean Salsa Chili.  If you are counting calories the Turkey Chili is Fast Metabolism Diet friendly and nobody will know that you are staying healthy.

If you are a Steak Fajita fan then this is the Chili for you.  Tender chunks of steak, sweet onions, green bell peppers in a tomato base flavored with fajita seasoning.  Add the toppings of your choice and dig in.
