One of my all time favorite recipes...especially on cool Autumn days is one that I found years ago in a Marlboro cookbook. It's a little spicy, a lot meaty, and loaded with good stuff. I wanted to share it here because it is one of my favorites, and because I took a picture this morning as I was putting it together. :-)

And here it is:
Ingredients:
How to make it:
 
  • Cook bacon in a large chili pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp. Transfer bacon to a large bowl; set aside. Pour off and reserve all but 2 TBS bacon drippings from pot.
  • Coat beef in combined flour, salt and paprika. Brown 1/3 of beef in drippings in pot; transfer to bowl with reserved bacon. Repeat twice with remaining beef, adding reserved drippings as necessary to brown beef. Add onions and garlic to last batch of beef, cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Return beef and bacon to pot. Add beef broth, tomatoes, peppers and cumin; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Uncover; continue to simmer 30-45 minutes or until beef is tender and chili is thickened.
