I love chili am also very very critical of it. I have found a very simple recipe for it not the best just real good eating chili and easy to make.
1 pouch of McCormick regular chili mix
1 can crushed tomatoes do not drain Red Gold
1 can tomato sauce Red Gold
cumin and chili powder to taste about 1/2 ts each is it use good chili powder not the cheap stuff McCormick, Mexene if you can find it, use 1 lb ground chuck drain most of liquid
Brown meat, drain add everything else simmer about 45min to hour eat. Add some water if need while simmering and stirring.

Prior to this recipe I threw out about 3-4 of every 5 pots I made. Not the best but very good. Never beans in it.

Same-ish recipe as above, as it's simmering though I toss in a scoop of brown sugar. Also I blend 1 habanero and 2-3 chunks of garlic in about a 1/3 to 1/2 cup of cream. Stir it in and let simmer, evenly distributes the heat and I prefer it over cayenne.

(Is no beans a Texas thing)? hmmm

• 2 lbs chili grind sirloin steak
• (salt and black pepper to taste)
• 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 2 cups water
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 4 teaspoons cumin
• 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground red pepper (add more if you like it spicier less if you dont)
• 2 tablespoons masa harina flour (added last)
• 1/4 cup hot water
• 1 15 oz can chili beans. (optional)
Brown and season with salt and pepper the ground meat and add to large pot or skillet. Add the tomato sauce and water and all the spices (masa is not a spice so you will add that later) …and stir until the mixture starts to boil….turn down heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes (pot should be covered)….during this time you should stir the mixture about every 5 or 10 minutes. .. at 30 minutes you want to check the consistency of the chili ( thick or thin) usually it will be very loose and thin so you should add the 2 tablespoons of masa to the ผ cup hot water and stir to make a slurry and slowly stir the masa/water mixture in the chili ….this will thicken up the chili..in about 5 -10 minutes…if you want beans in your chili you can add them at this point, we use Bush brand chili beans and drain off as much of the liquid from the beans as you can. Stir in the beans and heat for another 5-10 minutes and then it is ready to serve or slow simmer (covered) until ready to serve.

Lawry's chili seasoning is my favorite. I use deer meat and lots of diced onions and garlic. I also use Bush's chili beans (pinto) and the juice off of them makes the chili that much better. I do a high simmer 3 or 4 times as long as what they call for, about an hour.

If you ever had some real chili seasoning you would be amazed at the difference.

I could sit here and give a dissertation on the origins of chili and whether to use prepackaged chili seasoning mix or to start with the dried guahillo, chipotle, and ancho chilies. I know how to do it from scratch... and that it's based off a pared down mole sauce... and the truest pot of chili doesn't contain tomatoes. It's literally just meat, onions, peppers, and garlic.

HOWEVER.

Chili has evolved. And what I love, somebody else would find weird. If you want a serviceable chili, Williams chili seasoning has been on the market for decades for a reason. It's good, cheap, and folks like it. There's as many recipes for chili as there's been cooks in the state of Texas over the past 180 years. There's no "one true Texas chili"

Here's the base that everything else comes from.
5 pounds beef cut into small bits.
5 tablespoons cumin
5 large onions, chopped
10 cloves garlic, crushed
10 New mexico red chile pods - remove seeds, stems, and any white ribs.
6 cups beef broth
Oregano, to taste
Salt and pepper to taste

In a separate pot, add 2+ cups of water to boil. When it boils, add your chilies and make sure they're covered by the water, put a lid on it, and turn off the burner. Leave it sitting for 10 to 15 minutes until very soft. Puree the soft pods in a blender.

In a large, heavy bottom pot, brown the beef. Add the cumin, chopped onions and garlic. Cook until onions go clear. Add the pureed pods, oregano, salt and pepper to the stew pot, stirring the mixture well. Cook the chili from 3 to 4 hours over low heat, adding water and stirring as necessary.

I get really sick and tired of folks beating the drums about beans in chili. I've found one common thread whether or not your chili has beans in it. And it depends on how rich your folks were when they were growing up. If they needed to bulk out the chili to make it so everybody had enough to eat, then there's beans in it.

That said, don't even think coming in the same county as my chili with kidney beans. And you can keep your sugar in your cornbread and out of my chili. Yes, I have encountered this mess up north. Kentucky folks eat WEIRD.

The original Wick Fowler's chili.
2 lbs beef
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
2 cups broth
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons cumin
1+ tablespoon dried minced onion
1/4+ teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 cup chili powder
1 teaspoon ground red pepper


Brown beef in a heavy bottom pot. Add tomato sauce, 2 cups broth, paprika, cumin, onion flakes, garlic salt, chili powder, and ground red pepper. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the better it gets. Slow and low simmering makes it good. Add water as needed. Taste before you add any salt.

If you want it thicker....

2 tablespoons masa harina flour
1/4 cup hot water
Dissolve 2 tablespoons masa into 1/4 cup hot water to make a thick, but flowable mixture. Add masa mixture to chili. Cover and simmer another 15-20 minutes.
