Classic Chili
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 cream
Maybe don't try all those toppings at once, but in smaller combinations, they can be delicious! :-)

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prep ingredients.
- 2
Heat a soup kettle or Dutch oven. Once hot, heat the oil in prep for sautéing the veggies.
- 3
Add the Veggies and sauté until tender. ~15 min.
- 4
If you need the room, remove the Veggies from the pan. Brown the Meat. ~15 min.
- 5
When the meat is brown, drain the juices and oil from the pan.
- 6
Stir in the Sauce ingredients with the Meat and Veggies.
TIP: start light on the salt and pepper. More can be added later, to taste. Only add the water if the consistency is looking thicker than you prefer.
- 7
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for at least 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- 8
The flavor develops more over time, so if you have the time, continue simmering for another 30-120 minutes (or more!)
- 9
Taste periodically through cooking. Add salt, pepper, and/or water as needed.
- 10
If you're someone who likes Beans in their chili, add them 10-20 minutes before you're ready to eat. Simmer until the Beans are heated through.
Otherwise, skip this step!
