Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground Beef, Lean
- 1 pound Ground Pork Sausage (ie Jimmy Dean)
- 1 whole Onion, Sliced (I Use Sweet Onions)
- 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 2 cups Chicken Broth, Water Or My Favorite, Beer
- 6 ounces, weight Tomato Paste
- 1 Tablespoon Cumin
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Oregano, Dried
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Cayenne
- 2 Tablespoons Masa Harina Or Cornmeal
- 1/2 cups Warm Water
Method
- Brown meats and onion together in a large 12-inch skillet and drain well. Add garlic, stir 2 minutes. Mix together the broth (or water or beer) and the tomato paste. Add to the cooked meat. Mix well. Add all other ingredients except cayenne pepper, masa, and the 1/2 cup warm water. Simmer 30 minutes.
- Add cayenne pepper (you can always add more later). Mix masa and 1/2 cup warm water. Add to the chili and stir well.
- Simmer 20 minutes. Adjust seasonings at this point. If you like more of anything, do it now or forever hold your peace! Simmer up to 2 more hours, just be sure to stir every 30 minutes.
- Serve with the normal chili accompaniments: sour cream, cheese, additional onion, lime. Whatever floats your boat!
- Note: this is a yummy topping for Frito boats, potatoes or as a filling for burritos.
