This took me 4-5 years to perfect. I've been making this every 3 to 4 months for the past 4 years because my friends, family and coworkers are always asking about it, that's why I've named it" RedMan's Famous Chili".

When the weather turns cold, it's football season again, it's time for some hearty chili!

I have made this recipe many ways (added onions while cooking or chopped green pepper) below is the way my family likes me to make it. Add reserved juice from tomatoes if you want more liquid. I use a little cornstarch and water to thicken if needed. We serve this either over rice, elbow noodles or crackers and butter! Topped with chopped onions, cheese and sour cream or fritos!

This recipe is a great Chili recipe...everybody that I have cooked it for loves it!!

Tastes great! goes great with tortilla chips.

I've made this recipe for our chili cook-off at work that we have every year. Each time I've entered the contest, I won! My family and friends absolutely love this chili and asks me to make it as often as possible. I hope you enjoy it too!

This is for one pound of meat. Scale up to your hearts content. The pictures are from a double batch.

This is the best-tasting chili that I've ever had. It's nothing adventurous -- just classic and delicious!For fun, add some toppings to your bowl! Some of my favorites include:- green onions- cilantro- home-made mac & cheese- Fritos corn chips- Sour Cream & Cheddar Ruffles potato chips (but go light! Their flavor can be over-powering)- shredded cheddar cheese- and of course regular sour creamMaybe don't try all those toppings at once, but in smaller combinations, they can be delicious! :-)
