Tray's Spicy Texas Chili image

Being in Texas, chili is a staple on the few cold days we have each year. This is something I've come up with after years of trying to perfect an easy-to-make and delicious chili. This is a very spicy chili and the perfect meal for a chilly day. The beans are optional here as they traditionally aren't found in Texas chili.

Time 3h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 ¼ pounds ground beef
1 yellow onion, chopped, divided
1 habanero pepper, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL®), drained
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle amber beer
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 sleeve crackers

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, half the onion, habanero pepper, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the hot skillet until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
  • Transfer beef mixture to a large pot and add tomato sauce, kidney beans, diced tomatoes with green chiles, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, white pepper, and black pepper.
  • Bring beef mixture to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Stir in beer, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Continue to simmer chili until flavors blend, about 2 hours.
  • Spoon chili into bowls and top with Cheddar cheese, crackers, and remaining half onion.
