  • Toast the chili peppers before grinding them to enhance their flavor. This can be done in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.
  • Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork to create a richer flavor. You can also use ground turkey or lamb, if desired.
  • Brown the meat thoroughly before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the chili from becoming greasy.
  • Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Season the chili to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. Some good options include cumin, chili powder, paprika, and garlic powder.
