        I am a specialist when it comes to heat. I rarely cook anything
without either Ground Red (Cayenne) Pepper or Crushed Red (Cayenne) Pepper,
this is what you would find in a pizza place if you ate pizza. =+) I have
also added fresh jalapenos to my chili recipe and they added some serious
heat. When I can barely eat it then it is hot!!! Habanero Peppers have a
nice flavor too but I have not tried them in my chili. I use a recipe that I
came up with while on Atkins that varies from Ray' recipe. I have not tried
Ray' but from reading it I have to think mine, while having a few more carbs
from the tomatoes and green peppers I add, is a little more tasty. I don't
have an exact recipe. I just start adding stuff and it always seems to come
out right but if anyone would be interested in my recipe I would be glad to
try and outline it as much as possible.
