2 yellow onions diced
2 bell peppers diced
2 jalapeño peppers seeded and diced
2-4 tablespoons of chili powder
1-2 tablespoons of cumin
2 boxes good beef broth
1 can tomato paste
1 large can crushed tomatoes
6-8 diced tomatoes
1-2 tablespoons sugar
3 lbs diced sirloin

Brown sirloin in small batches. Salt and pepper each batch as it is browning. Remove browned meat to a side bowl. Once all meat is browned put onion and peppers in pan and stir. As they sweat scrape the pan to get all the browned meat off pan. After cooking for about 4-5 minutes add the garlic and cook a minute or two. Dump meat back into pot. Add tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, and tomato paste. Pour beef broth over everything and add chili powder, cumin, and sugar. Mix well. Cover and let simmer for at least 2 hours. If too runny, remove lid and cook an hour.

Some of the chili recipes that get posted around here have so many damn tomatoes in them. And they all sound horrible.

Perhaps make it and see if it tastes horrible? I don't know. Or if you like the recipe but don't like the tomatoes, take the tomatoes out? A lot of ways to respond to someone trying to help someone else without being a complete dick. Post your own recipe so we can tell you how ****y it sounds.

I love chili threads. People get so damn defensive. Your recipe has a lot of tomatoes. I've made recipes like that in the past and they were horrible to me. Relax.

I pretty much use a recipe similar to Fido's. Sometimes I make a chili puree, and sometimes Im lazy and just use gebhardts and some ancho chili powder. I don't use any jalepenos or serranos as my wife and daughter don't like it very spicy.

I don't even measure things at this point. The horror.

Coming from somebody with that handle......yeah, I don't put any stock in the comments.

I've never understood sugar in chili.

Sugar in spaghetti sauce is used lightly to cut the acidity - I assume the same thing here.

Pinto beans

Chili threads are just about the most divisive threads on Texags. Needs to be moved to Politics or R&P boards.

According to a bunch of people that post here, chop up whatever ingredients you want, throw it in a pot with whatever you think tastes good and because you grew up poor add beans to it. Call it chili and you're good to go.

Exactly. End of Chile threads for ever

BTW…..just to go back to Colorado's original diatribe. I make a badass Chile without tomatoes. It's called carne guisada. To me if you use cubed beef instead of ground beef, there is no difference except for the spices you throw in. And they are both awesome.

Why don't you load that up with tomatoes too?

If you make chili with a ton of tomatoes, and it tastes good, fine by me. Mine is pretty similar to Fido's from the thread that's linked above. The one big change is that instead of beer I use red wine, Malbec to be exact. Make fun of it if you want, but red wine will take it up a notch.

Carne guisada uses almost stew sized cuts of beef, not coarse ground or chili sized cubes. And is more of a stew than anything.

And it's awesome, especially with some fresh flour tortillas.

Damn, i'm hungry now.

Might as well throw a carrot in there, then, it accomplishes the same goal.

I made faux chili this week. Hamburger meat and box chili seasoning. And to top it off I ate it with some Jiffy mix cornbread.

Yes, I'm a heathen. But hey, at least I didn't defile it with beans!

Actually have a good one for the instapot they can get you decent chili in 30 minutes. Better than decent, actually.

We used wagyu ground beef the other day, and it was excellent. Have to siphon off some of the grease, but worth it.

And I'm a huge chili fan (and snob according to my wife…)

But I love this one.

And if you have to be dairy free like me, I used the Siete white queso to sub for sour cream and cheese, and it worked well!
