Alicia's Notes:
This is my forever favorite chili recipe.

I sometimes add a little more spice if I'm in the mood for something with a good kick, but whenever I hear chili, this is where my mind wanders and mouth waters!
 
Comments from the Test Kitchen:
Even the faint of heart can dive into this flavorful chili - Adjust the heat to your liking and enjoy!
 

Directions

1
Cook the ground beef in a skillet until done and drain well.

In a large pot, cook the cubed sirloin until done. Drain any excess fat.

Add the cooked ground beef and 1 Tbsp chili powder and dash of salt to the pot and stir together.
2
Add the remaining ingredients in order, stir well and bring to a low boil/simmer on low heat.

Cover and cook about 2 1/2 to 3 hours stirring occasionally.
3
***Note***
If you don't want too much kick only use one jalapeno and omit the hot sauce, but add another 1/2 to 1 Tbsp of chili powder.

Also, start with just 2 cups of water, if it is still too thick slowly add the remaining water until it reaches desired consistency.
4
Serve hot. If desired top with shredded cheddar cheese and diced green onion and a side of cornbread or tortilla chips.
5
This recipe can also be done in a large Crockpot. Follow the directions but cook on low heat setting for 4-6 hours, stirring occasionally.

I have found (by accident) chili beans that are "chili ready" and are canned with spices. I didn't realize until I got home once and I did't care for the flavor they had, so I make sure to check now.
