How Do YOU Make Chilli? (Recipe)

Tweet

I make Chili just like my grandmother made. She called it "Chilli beans". It's not homemade, the beans and such are from a can... but boy is it good! I remember begging her almost every week to make this for the family... and she would! I think she enjoyed cooking for her family. 3lbs. Ground beef 2 cans of light red kidney beans 2 cans of chili beans 1 large can of whole, peeled tomatoes 1 pack of McCormick HOT chili seasoning 1 bell pepper 1 onion Just brown the ground beef, dice up the bell pepper and onions, and I like to break apart the whole canned tomatoes with my hands, just like my Grandmother. Add everything, including the juices from the can into a large pot, plus 2 cans of water. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on medium for about 2 hours or until everything is cooked down and the peppers and onions are soft. Stirring occasionally. That's it! I like to add a bit of sour cream and shredded cheese to my bowl and eat with crackers. If you want it spicier, you can always add an additional pack of hot chili seasoning OR a couple of jalapenos! I always like to make mine spicy, because the sour cream and cheese help balance it out. How do YOU make chilli?
