Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Tailgate Chili Delight.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the essential ingredients for your chili masterpiece.
Step 2
In a spacious stock pot, warm it over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Introduce the ground beef and Italian sausage, breaking them apart as they sizzle.
Step 4
Cook while stirring frequently until the meat achieves a rich, browned hue, then drain any excess grease to keep your chili hearty yet balanced.
Step 5
Next, add the chili beans, spicy chili beans, diced tomatoes with their juice, and tomato paste into the pot.
Step 6
Fold in the chopped celery, onion, bell peppers, chile peppers, bacon bits, beef bouillon cubes, and a splash of beer for depth.
Step 7
Season this flavorful medley with a generous 1/4 cup of chili powder, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, cumin, hot pepper sauce, basil, cayenne pepper, paprika, sugar, salt, and black pepper.
Step 8
Stir thoroughly to ensure every ingredient is well combined.
Step 9
Cover the pot and lower the heat, allowing the chili to simmer gently for at least two hours.
Step 10
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, and remember, the longer it simmers, the more the flavors meld together.
Step 11
After the simmering session, taste your chili and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or chili powder to suit your palate.
Step 12
When you're satisfied with the flavor, remove the pot from the heat.
Step 13
You can serve it right away or let it cool, refrigerate, and reheat the next day for an even richer taste.
Step 14
To serve, ladle the steaming chili into bowls and crown it with crunchy corn chips and a sprinkle of shredded Cheddar cheese.
Step 15
Dive into your delicious tailgate chili and savor every bite!.
