    Chili means many different things to people all over the world. In Texas it is a deep, rich, brick red chili flavored with spices & peppers. It is prepared with beef traditionally, but may also contain wild game in season. True Texans never put beans in their chili, but we have been known to make a pot of pinto beans to serve with it! The recipe calls for Spicey Mama's Texas Chili Seasoning or your favorite blend of spices or chili seasoning.

    Ingredients

    • Spicey Mama’s Texas Chili
    • 2 pounds of ground beef or turkey
    • 1 large onion, diced

    • 1 T. cilantro, chopped
    • 3 cloves or 2tsp of garlic, finely minced
    • 1 tsp. canola oil
    • 1 large can (28oz.) crushed tomatoes

    3. Heat oil in large heavy pot over med-high heat.
    4. Add onions and peppers to oil and brown for about 2 minutes
    5. Add the garlic and cilantro and cook for about a minute stirring well to prevent garlic from over cooking.
    6. Add meat to the pepper/onion mix and sprinkle the Spicey Mama’s over the meat and stir gently while browning.
