Recipes Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes Chili Recipes Beef Chili Recipes Easy Texas Chili 4.4 (160) 130 Reviews 15 Photos This is a simple recipe for Texas chili I learned from my mother. I like my chili with a little fire to it, but you can adjust this recipe to your liking. This is a chili that only gets better the second day so don't worry about using a large pot and having more than your family can eat the first night because you can have it a couple of nights later. ENJOY. I know I do every time I make this chili. Recipe by Roger K Published on April 2, 2019 Save Saved!

Drain grease from beef. Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, jalapenos (if using), chili powder, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Bring mixture to a slow boil; cover and reduce heat. Simmer chili at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally so that it does not stick. This chili can be simmered for several hours; the longer you simmer, the more flavor you will get. Cook's Note: For the 3 cans pinto beans, you can substitute 6 cups homemade cooked pinto beans with juice.
