I absolutely loved the smoky-sweetness that the gochujang gave the chili - works really well with a couple extra dashes of liquid smoke! Probably my new favourite - cannot wait to make this again!

If you’re looking for a special dish for date night or want to impress an upcoming date (like I did, even though I didn’t know it yet), this is the dish for you.
