Notes
- The meat — The meat could easily be the difference between a quality chili and an average one. Brown the meat properly, all the while breaking it into chunkable, small pieces.
- The simmering — Any chili, and that includes this copycat Tommy’s Chili recipe as well, is at its best when simmered for some time. This not only allows the flavors to meld together but also makes the vegetables and the meat more tender.
