I sometimes double the recipe and freeze a batch for those lazy days! I’m not a football fan (I grew up on Soccer, Baseball, and Hockey) but since I live on Planet Earth, I am fully aware that the Super Bowl is right around the corner. This would be a great chili recipe to try for that!
In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat.
Once the beef is no longer pink, add the onion and lower the flame to medium, while stirring every minute or so for another 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
Add your whole tomatoes, tomato sauce, minced garlic, sliced jalapeños, cumin, chili powder, and salt to the pot, and stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 1 hour.
After 1 hour, remove the cover and make sure that your chili liquid isn’t evaporating too quickly. If it is, make sure your burner is on the lowest setting possible. Give it a quick taste test, place the lid back on the pot, and continue to simmer for another 15-30 minutes.
After another 15-30 minutes, your chili should be ready. Pour it into individual bowls, garnish with your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
