Ingredients for Game Day Chili:
2 pieces bacon, cut into bits
1 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced jalapeno
2 pounds ground beef
2 TBSP minced garlic
4 TBSP chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 TBSP molasses
1 cup beef broth
29 ounces crushed tomatoes
salt & pepper to taste
NOTES:
Makes 6 cups chili. All chili powders vary, taste and adjust spices to your taste. For even more spice, add some of the membrane and seeds from the jalapeno. I used an 80/20 ground beef. Use other ground meats to suit your taste.
DIRECTIONS:
1) In a large pot over medium heat, cook bacon bits until crisp. Remove from pot, drain bits on a paper towel and set aside.
2) To the pot add diced onion and jalapeno and saute until tender. Season with salt and pepper.
3) Add the ground beef and cook over medium-high heat until browned well.
4) Turn down the heat and add garlic, chili powder, cumin, cayenne and smoked paprika. Stir well.
5) Add back the bacon bits.
6) Add beef broth and crushed tomatoes.
7) Add Worcestershire sauce and molasses.
8) Stir and taste for seasoning.
9) Cover and simmer over low heat at least 30 minutes, but the longer the better.
10) Serve piping hot with toppings of your choice.
