Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 lb hot breakfast sausage
- 1 onion (chopped; transcript does not specify size)
- salt (to taste; called “UFO salt” in the transcript)
- 3 oz chili seasoning (Transcript says to use a chili seasoning of choice and mentions a Woodfire chili seasoning packet; the brand’s packet was Kinder’s.)
- 2 tbsp garlic (Transcript says “a couple tablespoons of garlic”; form not specified.)
- 4 oz green chiles (1 can)
- 4 oz diced jalapeños (1 can; optional—creator says it can be left out)
- 45 oz petite diced tomatoes (Creator says regular crushed tomatoes may be used instead; transcript describes this as 30 oz plus 15 oz.)
- 45 oz hot chili beans (Brooks brand; creator could only find mild beans in the small can, making the amount technically 55 oz. Says to drain if desired but does not drain them. Quantity follows the stated 45 oz recommendation.)
- 6 oz tomato paste (Use the entire can; transcript says to scrape it all out.)
- 45 oz tomato sauce (Use tomato sauce, not marinara sauce.)
- noodles (Optional; transcript says to add them at the time the chili is ready to cook, but gives no amount or type.)
- garlic powder (Optional, to taste; creator adds quite a bit during final seasoning.)
- onion powder (Optional, to taste.)
- cheese (For serving; creator says he likes cheese over the chili, type and amount unspecified.)
- crackers (For serving; creator crushes about a handful into his bowl. Type and amount unspecified.)
- hot sauce (Optional, for serving if more heat is desired; amount unspecified.)
- sour cream (Optional serving suggestion; amount unspecified.)
- salt (Additional salt to taste when serving, if desired.)
Steps
- 1
Set out a large pot, leaving room for the chili to be stirred. Add the lean ground beef and let it brown on one side; turn it and brown the other side.
- 2
Break the beef into the smallest pieces possible as it cooks.
- 3
Add the hot breakfast sausage and break it into very small pieces while it cooks.
- 4
Add the chopped onion and cook until it softens.
- 5
Season with salt to taste. The creator leaves out pepper.
- 6
Add the chili seasoning and garlic. Mix well.
- 7
Add the can of green chiles.
- 8
Add the diced jalapeños, if using.
- 9
Add the petite diced tomatoes.
- 10
Add the chili beans. They may be drained, but the creator does not drain them.
- 11
Add the tomato paste, scraping all of it out of the can.
- 12
Add the tomato sauce. Do not substitute marinara sauce, which the creator says made an earlier batch too sweet.
- 13
If using noodles, add them now so they have time to boil and cook; the transcript does not specify a noodle quantity or type.
- 14
Mix the chili thoroughly. Cook for 30 minutes to 1 hour to let the flavors come together. For the creator’s longer option, keep it on the lowest setting for about 2 hours and stir frequently.
- 15
Stir frequently while the chili cooks so it does not burn on the bottom. The creator notes that it thickens as moisture evaporates.
- 16
Taste the chili and adjust it to your preference with garlic powder, onion powder, and additional salt as desired.
- 17
Serve in bowls with cheese and crackers if desired. The creator suggests hot sauce for extra heat and also mentions sour cream as an optional topping.
Notes
The transcript has an inconsistency for the chili beans: the creator recommends 45 oz but then says the cans he had available technically totaled 55 oz. This extraction keeps the explicit 45 oz recommendation. A typed recipe is said to be available on AtHolmescooking.com, but its text was not supplied here. No exact noodle amount/type or final seasoning amounts are stated. Leftovers are eaten over the next few days; freezing leftovers in freezer bags and reheating later is mentioned in a comment, not by the creator.
