Directions
- Gather all ingredients
- In large stock pot, brown sausage, ground beef, and ground top round on medium high. Stir frequently and work to integrate meat together. Once evenly browned, drain of all excess grease.
- Pour in all chili beans, diced tomatoes, stew tomatoes and tomato paste. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to blend. Cover and simmer for 2 hours. The longer it simmers, the more flavor it develops. If you remove the cover and it’s too soupy, let simmer uncovered for additional 15-30 minutes.
- Taste chili, add more salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary. Remove from heat and serve. Consider condiments of cheese, sour cream, and corn chips.
