How to Make Amazing Chili

1. Brown 1 lb of ground extra lean beef with 1 medium chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic in a large pot or Dutch oven until the meat is no longer pink. Drain off any excess fat.
2. Add 2 stalks chopped celery, 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), and salt and pepper to taste. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are softened.
3. Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans (drained and rinsed), and 2 cups beef broth.
4. Transfer to a slow cooker (or continue cooking in the pot on low) and simmer for 8-12 hours, stirring every 2-3 hours. (If using a stovetop, maintain a gentle simmer.)
5. Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot, topped with your favorite chili fixings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped onions, and cilantro. Pair with a crisp salad and cornbread or crusty rolls for a complete meal.
6. Enjoy your delicious and warming Amazing Chili!
