Wick fowler's 2 to 3 alarm chili

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 pounds Chilli meat
¼ cup Oil
1 Onion, chopped
2 Garlic cloves, chopped
1 can (8-oz.) tomato sauce (up to 2)
¾ teaspoon Paprika (up to 1)
1½ teaspoon Cayenne pepper
1 cup Water (up to 2)
¼ cup Chili powder (up to 1/3)
1½ teaspoon Salt (up to 2)
2 teaspoons Ground oregano
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Masa (if you do not add beans as below) (up to 2)

Directions

Brown meat in oil. Drain and set aside.

Saute onion and garlic in same oil; and add beef and all ingredients *except masa*.

Cook until tender (1½ hrs.)

If not from Texas, or do not have a bunch of kids and need to s-t-r-e-a-c-h your budget, add 4 cups canned kidney beans. Beans will tend to tighten the chili and give it somw body. If you do not add beans, then...

Add some water to masa to make loose paste and add to mix while stirring.

This will *draw* chili tighter

I left the ingredients flexible so that you could see where experimentation could occur.
