This is a chili I have been making for years. I have made it with all kinds of ground meats (beef, turkey, deer, elk) but I prefer ground moose. The longer you let it simmer the better as the flavors will blend. Top with shredded cheddar cheese. Serve with fresh baked cornbread and sweet honey butter. Men LOVE this meal!

BEEF, MOOSE OR VENISON CHILI



Beef, Moose or Venison Chili image

This is a really thick hot chile. I myself don't use the hot peppers or Tabasco sauce. I also use the ground red pepper instead of the crushed red pepper. I like my chili a little more thinner so I also add tomato juice. Make this on a nice cold day and it'll heat you up in no time.
