Fluffy’s Chili
When it’s a really cold night it’s a great time to make a big pot of beef chili for the family. This hearty meal will make enough to feed 6 family members.
When it starts to get really cold, I like to warm up the family with a nice pot of my chili. People are outside shoveling snow and when they come inside they are tired and HUNGRY. The best way to handle this is to make enough food that is hearty and fills them up. My chili does that and takes minimal time to make.
This is an extremely easy recipe to make. Basic no fuss ingredients that you can get together anywhere. Just 10 minutes of simmering which will yield a bold and rich flavor that’s unprecedented! This chili recipe is something I’ll make quite frequently as soon as the temperature starts to dip into the 60’s. I love the ease at which I can throw this together, it’s incredibly filling for the family, and everyone really enjoys it!
Every now and then, depending on what ingredients I have, I’ll make a couple little variations on this chili recipe. However, based on customer feedback (my family and friends), I’ve settled on this to be the absolute best version of my chili and possibly the best version of chili on earth?
I’ll let you be the judge!
Ingredients:
1 lb of grass fed ground beef
1 filet steak
1 small red onion diced
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 half of an orange pepper diced
1 half of a red pepper diced

1 teaspoon of dried oregano
1 teaspoon of dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon of hot pepper flakes
1 can of diced tomatoes drained
1 can or box of organic kidney beans drained and thoroughly rinsed
1 15oz can of tomato sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil for pan
Instructions:
In dutch oven heat olive oil to cover bottom of pan
cook onions and peppers until softened
add garlic and cook for two minutes
sprinkle in salt, pepper, oregano, parsley, and pepper flakes
cover and keep warm
In separate frying pan cook ground meat until all pink is gone
drain fat off ground beef and add to onion spice mixture
drain tomatoes and add to beef
add 1/2 can of tomato sauce
stir and simmer for 20 minutes
drain and thoroughly rinse the kidney beans
add the 2nd half of tomato sauce
cover and simmer for ten minutes
turn off heat and let rest
Your chili is done, but for extra optional richness sear a filet steak on both sides and cut in small pieces to add to the finished chili.
Serve with noodles, rice, or couscous. Grate some fresh cheddar cheese and or avocado slices for add ons.
Enjoy! Leftovers taste great the next day.
