My wife (no pics) asked me to make chili due to the poor weather. I have a pretty simple recipe.

Brown 3 lbs of ground beef
Sauté 1 onion
Drain Fat
Add 2 Cans of Creole Style Blue Runner Beans
1 can Tomato Paste
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cups water
Lots of Chili Powder

It’s a simple recipe that hits the spot, but what do you do to make it your special recipe?

• 4 slices thick cut bacon
• 4 lb beef brisket flat cut into 1/2" cubes
• Your favorite beef seasoning
• 1 large white onion, diced
• 5 garlic cloves, pressed
• 1 Tbsp paprika
• 1 Tbsp cumin powder
• 3 ½ Tbsp Texas chili powder
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• ½ tsp chipotle chile powder
• 1-2 chipotles in adobo w/ sauce
• ½ quart beef broth
• ½ cup strong black coffee or coffee stout (I use Parish Reve)
• 28 oz. can whole (or diced) tomatoes, in juice

Dice bacon and cook in dutch oven until soft, then remove.

Season brisket cubes and sear in bacon grease. Do this in batches for a good sear.

Caramelize onion in bacon/brisket grease, adding garlic later.

Add seasonings, then bacon and brisket, followed by remaining ingredients.

Bring to boil, then let simmer for 2-4 hours. The longer you simmer, the better the chili is.

Top with shredded cheese, cilantro, and onions.

As in red beans? Seems strange.

Dark red kidney beans if you're gonna use beans.
