What's your favorite chili recipe?
I'm making chili for football viewing later today. Although there are several recipes I use, I thought it might be fun for all of us to share chili recipes. What's your favorite "go to" recipe? THX 
Here's the one I'm making today:
QUICK ULTIMATE CHILI
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion , chopped
1 garlic clove , finely chopped
1 lb ground beef
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 small bay leaf
1 (28 ounce) can peeled plum tomatoes, undrained
1 (10 ounce) can Ro-tel Tomatoes, undrained
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can kidney beans, undrained
1 Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; add onions and garlic, cook5 minutes, stirring often.<o
></o>
2 Add ground beef and cook until no longer pink.<o></o>
3 Add the next 7 ingredients (the seasonings) and cook 4 minutes.<o></o>
4 Add undrained plum tomatoes (crushing with the back of a
wooden spoon), and the undrained Rotel tomatoes<o></o>
.
5 Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 1 hour or untilthickened, stirring occasionally.<o></o>
6 Add kidney beans and cook an additional 10 minutes.

Easiest ever
1 lb. ground chicken or turkey (beef, if preferred)
.......Brown in fry pan, drain and place in crock pot
Add..... 1 lb. can of kidney beans
.......... 1 lb. can of tomato sauce
.......... 2/3 T. chili powder (or to taste)
....and I use garlic salt rather than garlic and salt.......about 2 tea.
Cook all day and dinner is ready when you are ready.
serve with garlic bread
Increase by another pound of each of main ingredients for guests or leftovers......

My brother has a chili night just about every month. I got him the Marlboro Man chili recipe book and he tries a different one each month. Some have , to me, odd ingredients but come out tasting great. Like the one with chocolate in it. Me I open a can LOL

I use "Taste of Homes" creamy white chili recipe. I won 2nd place in a company sponsored chili contest for it. I didn't get 1st because one of the judges liked it, but didn't think that white chili was really chili. What does he know?

I buy the generic mild chili packet at Walmart, add 1 lb ground chuck, 2 15 1/2 cans of tomatoe sauce, and 1 cans of Bush's chili beans. My hubby doesn't agree with onions so I add my onions to my bowl and huge scoop of mild cheddar cheese in the shredded bag. It is just to die for as far as I am concerned. We have it at least once a week.
