Got 3 lbs. of ground venison ready for chili. Except I lost my old recipe in the move. Anyone have a good one they will share? Competition winners would be great.

Yes, beans. We ain’t in Texas.
Not too spicy, wife doesn’t like spice. Neither does my reflux.
No crockpot recipe.

What ya got? Thanks,
 
Ingredients

Meat-3lbs
Large Sweet onion -1
Large Red onion -1
Medium Jalapeno -1
Medium Banana pepper -2


I like "Bushes" brand but
Mixed Chili Beans in mild chili sauce-2
Black beans-1
Red kidney beans in mild chili sauce -1
Pintos with diced jalapenos -2

I like "Hunts" but
Fire Roasted Chunk tomatoes-2
Large tomatoe paste -1

Rotel Mild -1

3-packets of McCormick's Tex Mex chili seasoning

Ketchup
Mustard
Worcestershire sauce
Brown sugar
Cinnamon
Salt

----------------


Brown and scramble burger meat with hamburger seasoning (McCormick's) and Worcestershire sauce.

Drain grease off and set aside

Dice and slice onions, devein peppers and saute together in skillet until almost soft. Now add to skillet the Rotel. Simmer until soft. Set aside.

In a big pot, add browned meat, sauteed vegetables and add all the beans, paste and tomatoes. Stir well. Add Tex Mex seasoning. Simmer on medium low. Stir often for the first 15 minutes.

Add 1.5 cup ketchup. 1/2 cup yellow mustard, 3 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1/4 tablespoon of cinnamon powder. Salt to taste. Stir in well.

Chilli is best to make early in the day and allow it to soak in for SEVERAL HOURS before serving. I like to cook at lunch, simmer with lid on low until good hot the turn off. When chill set in fridge until dinner then rewarm up slowly.

This will not be spicy. The jalapenos are mild and only allow for mild heat being deveined and seeds removed.

------------------

For more heat, increase to and use 4 jalapenos and do not toss the seeds out. Lay the seeds themselves on a cutting board and crush. Scrape crushed seeds into the pot and stir in well.
Plus instead of mild Rotel use HOT.
 
this won me second place at the Miller Lite Stone Mountain chili cookoff
doesn't get much easier either....

I could tell ya but I’d have to kill ya. But like said earlier. We make it. It’s never the same recipe.
Can tomatoes (seasoned)
Mixed kidney beans
Tomato paste if you want it thicker.
Onion
Bell peppers
Jalapeño(s)
Chili powder
Whatever meat one prefers.

We do use the crockpot though. Just easier. Plus we leave it on overnight.
You can use large pot on stove though. Always taste better the next day
