Truly Texan Chili image

I am a native Texan, and this is the best chili recipe I've ever tasted-it's meaty and spicy. I'd make this whenever I was "homesick" during the years we spent away from Texas due to my husband's military career. -Betty Brown, San Antonio, Texas

This chili is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili powder or cayenne pepper.
