For a good basic start, go buy Mexene brand chili powder and use 1.5 times the powder called for in the recipe on the package. I like to use some fresh chilis too, a little garlic, a little cilantro, and I tighten it up with a little corn meal in the last 30 minutes. I also add a Hershey bar...yes a Hershey bar. It works.

I agree with you Otis, the Mexene recipe is a great starting point. I would use additional chili powder, garlic, maybe coffee for some of the liquid and tighten with masa. Oh, and of course, beans.

Here's the recipe from the bottle (I also added it to the recipe thread):

Mexene Chili

1 lb Ground beef
3/4 c Chopped onion
1 Clove garlic minced
2 tb Mexene chili powder
1 tb Flour
1 ts Salt
1/2 ts Ground cumin
1/2 ts Sugar
8 oz Tomato sauce
1 c Water


Instructions:

brown meat onion garlic together then drain excess fat. Stir in remaining ingredients mix well. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
