Ingredients
-
2 pounds lean ground beef
-
1 large onion, diced
-
1 large bell pepper, minced
-
3 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans
-
2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
-
4 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
-
½ cup chili powder
-
3 jalapeño peppers, minced (Optional)
-
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
-
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
-
Cook and stir beef, onion, and bell pepper in a large pot over medium heat until beef is browned and onion and pepper are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
-
Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder, jalapeños, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Bring to a slow boil, then cover and reduce the heat. Simmer chili, stirring occasionally so it does not stick, for at least 30 minutes or up to several hours; the longer it simmers, the more flavorful it will be.
Recipe Tip
You can substitute 6 cups of homemade cooked pinto beans with juice for the 3 cans of pinto beans.
