Beth’s World Famous Chili…Ok maybe not world famous…YET!
Ingredients
1-2 lbs ground beef
1 medium onion (my favorite is Vidalia)
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 small can tomato paste
2 cans diced tomatoes
2 cans tomato sauce
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 1/2 Tbs Ground Cumin
1 Tbs Chili powder
1 tsp yellow mustard
5-10 dashes of Tabasco sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot, brown ground beef over medium-high heat, then add the onion followed by the garlic. Cook the onion until translucent. (If your meat is exceptionally oily, take the time to drain the fat from the meat, but DO NOT rinse it. You don’t want to wash away all that yummy flavor!) Then season the beef mixture with salt and pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Then add the yellow mustard and Tabasco sauce, followed by the tomato paste. Stir to evenly distribute the tomato paste throughout the meat. Finally add the black beans, diced tomatoes, and tomato sauce. At this point taste your chili, and adjust the spices if needed. Then let the pot of chili slow simmer over medium-low heat for at least 20 minutes. NOTE: the longer you allow your chili to simmer, the better it will taste, but make sure you stir it often and DO NOT let it come to a rapid simmer. This will cause your meat to start to, well for lack of a better term, disintegrate!
If you want Beth’s true chili, then there is a very specific way to eat this tantalizing treat. Start with a base of small corn chips (preferably Fritos). Layer on a generous portion of Beth’s World Famous Chili. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream. (NO light stuff here!) And there you have the PERFECT bowl of chili. Oh and by the way, this chili is perfectly suited for an amazing chili cheese dog. But that my friend is another story!
