Jim’s Famous Chili

Jim's Famous Chili

Here it is! Jim’s famous chili. We’ve  gotten so many requests for this recipe. My husband started making this chili a couple years ago and now he’s famous for it. Everyone wants to know when he’s cooking up a batch so they can come over to eat it and they always take some home with them. I think we’ve even made new friends with this chili. It’s spicy and so full of flavor, you can’t have just one bowl. With big pieces of meat, this is definitely a mans’ chili but the ladies love it too!

He usually makes his first pot on Halloween night and then makes it a couple more times during the winter. He never uses a recipe and he tastes as he goes so I had to stand next to him and write everything down. This recipe makes a ton so feel free to cut it in half. If you do make the whole recipe, you can preserve the leftovers in mason jars, freeze it or share it with friends like we do. Enjoy!
