I transfered to crockpot added more seasoning but still had that schorched smell.and after taste not good my 5yr old granddaughter would not eat it so I googgle it and saw the reviews about the peanut butter with not other option to throw it out I did it. Low and behold it worked!!! My daughter came over to pick up her kid and had her taste it without telling her she thought the chilli was great not pb taste and even better no schorched taste or smell ...who would have thought. The only other thing I have used pb for is to get gum out of hair that works too.

I poured it into a new pot right away. I'll try the peanut butter trick tonight. But how much peanut butter should I use per gallon of chili? How high should I turn the burner and how long should I cook it? OR should I only try a pint of chili at a time..how much peanut butter per pint/ How long to cook it and how high should I set the burner to? Please help! <em>Hi Maggie, I don't think this is an exact science. I would try a little peanut butter at a time but I like your idea of working with a pint at a time. Test it out with a pint and then extrapolate for the rest. How long depends on how much chili and how far along you were in the cooking process. What was the burner set at when you burned it? I would lower it from there and be sure not to walk away from it so you can keep an eye on it. - RG</em> I burnt a HUGE pot of chili last night. I poured it into a new pot right away.
