Halftime Chili

We always cook chili on Super Bowl Sunday. But a good chili recipe is hard to find. I have never followed a recipe when it comes to making chili. So I have finally accepted the fact that chili is just one of those things you tweak until you get it right. The good thing is, you can not overcook chili. Which gives you the opportunity to fix the consistency by reducing, change the ratio of beef by adding beans and adjust the heat by adding more spice. So I say, use this basic chili recipe and create your own. It was a good base but I doubled the beans, added chipotle peppers, more tomato puree and more beer. In the end I got it right and we topped it with raw onion and shredded cheese. We could hardly wait until halftime. Enjoy!
