Chili!

My Chili Recipe

Note: This scales up, but if you do so, reduce the chili powder (for
example, if you do 4 pounds of meat, then do ~3/4 cup of chili powder,
not 1 cup). If you like your chili much hotter then feel free to add jalapenos, etc. to taste
You can also use fairly finely chopped up stew beef but I rarely have the patience, wrist strength , or sharp enough knife to do


Two pounds of ground beef (90% lean or better works best)
1 "regular size" (15-16 oz) can of tomato sauce
1/2 cup of chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon of minced garlic (best) or garlic powder
3 Tablespoons minced onion or onion flakes
1 Tablespoon of Liquid Smoke

1/4 teaspoon of oregano
1 or 2 "regular" size cans of black beans

Brown the ground beef along with the garlic and onion
Drain off as much fat as possible.
Add to ground beef the tomato sauce plus one-and-half cans of water.
Add the liquid smoke, chili powder, oregano, and salt

Simmer for about an hour.
Drain the beans and add the beans to the mix. Simmer on low heat for
another 1 to 4 hours, making sure chili doesn't dry out and stick to
the bottom. (add water if needed)
