ok, who has tried this one? I want to make it but wonder if the pumpkin flavor is really strong. Interested to hear comments of those who have made it.

I made this recipe last week and it turned out amazing! My man gobbled it up. Definitely saving this recipe to make more in the future. Perfect winter food. Such a unique recipe. It’s sweeter than regular chilli but you don’t taste a strong pumpkin flavor. It just creates the perfect texture and flavor. To offset the sweetness I used the Spicey V8 instead of the regular and added extra tabasco and Franks Redwings Buffalo sauce. Perfect sweet/spicey combination. Had extra left over and froze it. Try this recipe you won’t regret it. DELISH!!

What is the green in the picture? I’m not seeing anything in the ingredients that would be green.

Does anyone know how much this makes? Or, what the minimum size crock pot is that you would need to make this recipe?

Can I cook this one on high for a lesser time? If so, how long on high? This sounds delish!

My husband doesn’t like beans, so I’ve come to terms with needing to omit them in any chili recipe we decide to try.

He also thinks he doesn’t like pumpkin, although in the 10 years we’ve been together I have never known him to try it.

What are the odds I might be able to test this recipe on him without him calling shenanigans? I think it sounds wonderful!

There is no chili powder in the ingredients list.
Is this correct?

Tried this today. Not sure if I made it correctly, but didn’t come out well. Make sure not to over do the cloves, or just leave them out completely, but it was just way too overpowering for me.

I made this chili recipe for a pot-luck for child’s dance class. Every time we have a pot-luck, I am asked to bring this! My 2 alterations are: I use 1# ground beef and 1# Italian Sausage rather than 2# ground beef. I also add more salt than is suggested. Even people who don’t like pumpkin take a second helping! Thanks for this great keeper!

Has anyone tried this with ground chicken or turkey? I prefer that to ground beef. I am thinking with the spices and tomatoes, it wouldn’t make that much difference in the flavour. Might try it with and use beef broth instead of V8 juice.
