WOLF BRAND Angus With Beans Chili, 15 oz.

I ran across this Wolf Brand Angus Beef chili with beans for a reasonable price. It's one that's been on my list to try. I've always liked Wolf brand regular chili with beans and their hot and spicey variety. Nothing beats homemade chili but I like to keep canned chili on hand for the occasional quick and easy meal. I've tried many of the brands of canned chili on the market and so far, for my tastes, Wolf Brand is the best. This angus beef variety is no exception! It is in the running for the best canned chili I've had. It's a very similar flavor profile to their regular chili with beans. It's thick and rich and has a nice chili flavor. It has a nice balance of beans and meat. There is plenty of meat and it is in small, diced pieces. Like small chunks of stew meat or round roast with plenty of beef flavor. There's no filler or "enhanced" meat in this chili! I wouldn't call this chili spicey. I like some pretty hot chili but mild is good sometimes too. I would say this will only seem spicey to someone with a sensitive palette. For me it had just enough kick to be flavorful. I will buy this again as long as the price is reasonable. It was only slightly more than I usually pay for the other Wolf varieties or the Hormel that I sometimes buy. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a flavorful canned chili with lots of real beef. The only real drawback to this product is the high salt content. Like most canned chili this has a really high sodium content. If salt is a major concern for you there are other brands or varieties of chili that are lower in sodium than this one. Then again, if salt intake is critical for you, than you probably shouldn't be eating canned chili at all.

The CHILE IS GREAT, but when it arrived the CAN WAS SQUASHEDRIGHT UP AT THE TOP OF CAN, making it extremely difficult to open? I had to saw the top off losing part of the product! Can’t recommend if the can is going to come DAMAGED! So I’m looking to get another brand hoping they take better care of their Canned product?

This is what a can of chili is supposed to taste like. Do they still make it though? I can't find it anymore. All the other brands pale in comparison.

I'm the type of guy that likes to mix up flavors and change brands. So with that, the only thing I'm a little unhappy this product is it could use a little more meat. It's not that skimpy I just could use a little more. It's a little bit strong on cumin. But I'm a tomato freak so I just add a can of your favorite brand of diced tomatoes with or without Italian seasoning and it makes a great chili. So at first I wasn't impressed but I'm going to keep buying this every now and then so I can throw it in the mix of my other favorite brands. Don't let me discourage you that's just my opinion. Everybody's taste buds are a little different You'll have to buy at least six to try out for yourself.

Read two top 10 canned chili reviews and one gave Wolf's the top spot. The other gave Dennison's the top spot. Going to try that one next. Back to the Wolf's...the only other canned chili I've ever had is Hormel. To me, Wolf's is way better. Spiciness is probably not worth mentioning since everyone is so different. My wife would take one bite of this and rush for a glass of water, saying her mouth was on fire. For me it was perfect. Someone else would say, "where's the spice". I found a little sweetness alongside the spice. Nice, tender chunks of the Angus beef in it. I'll probably be buying a lot more of it. UPDATE: I've purchased this stuff 9 times. My last order it was $3.18 per can. I certainly won't be buying more at the ridiculous price of $9.59 per can. I know there's a lot of inflation but that price is crazy. I thought maybe it was a mistake and you got 3 cans for that price but it's not.
