Steps:
- In a large pot, add the oil, salt, a few grinds of black pepper and the onions. Cook over medium-high heat until tender, about 6 minutes. Add the chili powder and beef and break up into bits, cooking until done, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and beans. Stir and cover to cook for 20 minutes. Serve with a bar of toppings and freshly fried corn tortilla strips to use for utensils.
- Bring at least 2 inches of oil to 350 degrees F in a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot. Add the tortilla strips one by one and fry in small batches until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with salt.

Steps:
- Rub meat with spices ( I use Santa Maria tri tip seasoning ).
- Cook Tri-Tip on BBQ med heat for 30 minute fat side up.
- remove from direct heat and bake in BBQ for another 30 minute.
- Cool then cover and refrigerate overnight. This is important because the meat will retain moisture.
- In A.M. cut Tri-Tip across grain into 1 inch chunks, remove and discard fat.
- Place in crock pot.
- Add enchilada sauce, cumin, and water.
- Cook on low (I use the warm setting on my crock pot when I am at work then when I get home finish on low if necessary).
- Remember this is beef and overcooking is easy to do.
- Add beans if desired.
- Please let sit chili overnight before eating.

Tips:
- Use a variety of beans. Don't just stick to one type of bean. Using a variety of beans will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Chili is a great dish to experiment with different spices. Some good options include cumin, chili powder, and paprika. You can also add other spices to taste, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
- Let your chili simmer for a while. The longer your chili simmers, the better the flavors will develop. Simmer your chili for at least 30 minutes, or even longer if you have time.
- Serve your chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular chili toppings include cheese, sour cream, and onions. You can also serve your chili with cornbread or crackers.

Chili is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a pot of chili that will warm you up from the inside out. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chili a try.
