Boomin 3 Meat Chili

I stumbled upon this recipe from one of Crossfit San Leandro's trainers this holiday season.  We decided to give it a whirl and tweaked it just a bit.  Here is a link to the original recipe in case you would like to try this one out too.  We omitted the mushroomsand thai basil(we couldn't find this ingredient at Whole Foods)
