Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast or stew meat are both good options for chili because they have a lot of connective tissue that breaks down during cooking, resulting in a tender and flavorful chili.
- Brown the beef well before adding it to the chili. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the chili from being greasy.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your chili. This will add flavor, color, and texture to the dish.
- Season the chili well. Chili is a dish that can handle a lot of flavor, so don't be afraid to add plenty of spices and herbs.
- Let the chili simmer for a long time. This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen.
- Serve the chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include cheese, sour cream, onions, and jalapeños.
