    Also another quick question, when meat is in the dutch oven at first, he says "close lid" so I am assuming this means the dutch oven lid? Surprised because it wont pick up smoke then . . ?

    I always interpreted that as the "egg lid", aka the dome.  Dutch oven stays uncovered the entire cook when I do it.


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    FYI, there is a newer version of this recipe that uses semi-sweet baking chocolate instead of cocoa powder.

    Great, thanks for all the help, turned out great.  I got a bar of "LINDT EXCELLENCE dark chocolate infused with spicy red chili" for christmas.  After I read your post, I threw in 4 or 5 squares on top of the hersheys I already added.  Not sure how it helped as this was first time I made BGE chili, but it is an excellent recipe.

    I have a lodge enameled 7 qt that works great on the Egg.  IIRC ~$50.

  • I can't emphasize how amazing this chili was. This was the first thing I cooked on my egg, and talk about starting off on the right foot! UNBELIEVABLE!!!
