If you're a fan of the menu at this American chain of restaurants which serves a variety of foods such as burgers, steaks, pasta, and seafood then you'll love this collection of copycat recipes.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Like the previous reviewer said, this tastes nothing like the original....I used Coca cola....the sweet taste does not belong.....very disappointing

This Chili did NOT taste a thing like Steak N Shake Chili. I've been eating it for 40 years, and this doesn't compare. It has a sweet flavor that just doesn't belong. It has to come from the Cola because that's the only sweet thing in it. I'm very disappointed because I specifically went to the store and bought all the ingredients; not cheap. And then spent over an hour fixing it. I think if the Cola was left out it might be better.
You don't mention which brand of cola you used, but that could definitely change the taste depending on which one was used.
