"I had a really good freezer stash of Beer Brats and didn't want to just pan fry them. So decided to see if I could make a chili with them. And By George,the recipe turned out much better than I expected. :) Now as with most of my recipes, you can put your own spin on them. Now with the beans,I used a combination Chili seasoned pintos and Chili seasoned Great Northern,as long as you use Chili ready beans it doesn't matter.Serve with cornbread or your favorite crusty bread.

This was one great bowl of chili! I doubled the recipe since my crock pot is larger than 3 quarts and I didnt want the chili to burn. Didnt have any coriander on hand so I added a little more cumin and oregano. Also use Bush's chili beans and a red onion instead of sweet. We enjoyed the brats in the chili instead of ground beef a very nice change of pace. So happy I made a double batch so we had enough for a few days. Thank you Chef shapeweaver for creating this recipe it is going in my favorites! Made and reviewed for the Alphabet tag game.

Delicious. I made a couple of changes. I used canned kidney beans because we don't care for the beans called "chili beans". (pintos, I think) and I added about 1 cup of beef broth, because we prefer a thinner chili. But otherwise made as directed. The spices were perfect!
