Notes

MAKE YOUR CHILI BETTER

Every one likes their chili different and while this recipe is more authentic by itself, its a little too much tomato for me.

I personally enjoy mine like this. Use the recipe above BUT also add (1) can of Wolf Brand Chili (no beans) and 1 extra pound of cooked ground beef.

Add minced garlic while cooking the beef ( I use about 1 tablespoon per one pound of beef). This will make your chili super thick and I love the can of Wolf Brand chili in mine because of the flavors.

TOO THICK?

If your chili is TOO thick, just add about 1/4th cup of water at a time.

TOPPINGS

Don’t forget the toppings – diced onions, cheese, sour cream or dip with tortilla chips.
