Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound lean ground beef
4 ounces sweet Italian sausage (casing removed)
1 cup chopped sweet onion
2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef and sausage to the pot breaking it up into small pieces with a fork. The smaller the pieces, the better your chili will be!
  • Continue cooking the meat until browned and no longer pink, approximately 7-8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the meat from the pot and transfer to a large bowl. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of fat.
  • Add the onion to the pot with the reserved fat. Cook the onion for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Stir in the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute.
  • Add the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne, paprika and tomato paste to the onion mixture stirring to combine. Continue to cook the onions until the tomato paste turns a deep Burgundy color, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato sauce, brown sugar, espresso powder and vinegar. Return the beef and sausage back to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Turn the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Check for seasoning again adding salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve immediately.
