I am not authorized to speak for him, but here is LBJs favorite chili recipe, courtesy of an old internet chili article. I have made this one and it is easy to make and OK-good. You can adjust chili powder and other spices to make it become your recipe.
I'm not sure I have a favorite, since I usually start with LBJ's recipe with dump and taste used until I am happy. I use ground, minced or cut up meat I have, Cow, deer, etc. I know how to make it really spicy hot, but I hardly ever do that.
– Pedernales River Chili:
Ingredients:
4 pounds chili-grind beef chuck OR venison
1 large onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano (preferably Mexican oregano)
2 tablespoons chili powder (or more, to taste)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste
5 or 6 dashes Tabasco or other hot pepper sauce
2 cups hot water
1-1/2 cups canned whole tomatoes, undrained
Directions:
Put the meat, onion and garlic in a Dutch oven, and cook over medium heat until the meat is lightly browned.
Add the oregano, chili powder, cumin, salt and Tabasco.
Pour in the water and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 1 hour.
Skim fat during the cooking, if desired.

We had a chili cookoff today at work. 20 different ones. Dude that won had a bison chili with chipotle in it that was pretty damn good.

I guess now would be a good time to ignite the "real chili doesn't have beans in it" debate. Personally, I prefer it without beans, but I do make it with beans as well. I just don't put a shite load of them in there. If I wanted that, I'd go to Wendy's.
What says you...beans or no beans?

I prefer it without beans myself (it's the former Texan in me), but if chili with beans is someone's favorite, great! I'm not here to yuck someone else's yum. Also, I would happily eat a chili with beans if it were offered.

I like using ground pork for mine instead of ground beef.

Meat Church Texas Chili
Made this 2 years ago and it was great. Recommend halving the recommended amount of chipotles in Adobo sauce…that has some heat to it.

100% meat tastes better but I cook it with beans for personal consumption to make it less calorie dense.
1lbs lean ground beef
1 can light red kidney beans drained
1 can dark red kidney beans drained
1 can tomato sauce
1 large can whole tomatoes
If I'm feeling industrious or experimental I will do my own chili seasoning. If not I will just buy something like the Carrol Shelby seasoning package.
My own personal chili life hack. Eat the chili with croutons instead of crackers. Takes chili to the next level.

Coffee, semi-sweet chocolate morsels and instead of tomato sauce I use Zing Zang. I always have some kind of small chunk beef in it along with the ground meat or ground deer. No bean.

Kinders wood fired chili seasoning is good

Used to love Carrol Shelby's mix, but it changed a few years back. Don't buy it any more.

I use the 2 Alarm Chilli Kit to package directions except for a couple things.
It calls for 2lbs of meat I use a family pack which is normally about 3.25-3 lbs. I also brown my ground meat (beef, deer or pork), take it out, brown an onion and a can of rotel down for about 30 minutes, then add my meat and everything else in the pack into the pot along with about 15-20 chocolate chips. Cook about 30 minutes, if I want beans in it I'll add them at this point, and cook for another 30 minutes or so.

Chili is a condiment, not a damn dish. I will fight anyone.

I found a recipe recently from britscookin on Instagram that is my favorite so far. Really all her stuff is killer
I think the lb of hot breakfast sausage included with whatever ground beef, bison, deer, etc makes a big difference.

Breakfast sausage in chili? Just change up your meat texture. Instead of straight grind, cut up some round steak or other non fatty cut. Cube up some leftover smoked brisket.

Tips...I like to mix a few chili powders. I usually add a little more cumin.
I like to mince and mix in some fresh cilantro and peppers...jalapeño,Serrano, etc.
I add a little cornmeal slurry for texture.
I always add some chocolate...usually a Hershey bar per 1/2 gallon or so.

I usually try to include it in chili threads, but I was tied up. I'm glad you did, MD!
