Okay, I know I’ve never experienced all the chili recipes ever made, but it’s the best I’VE ever eaten. And you know what, when you make up a batch of this for yourself, it will be the BEST YOU’VE ever eaten too!
It’s time to present to you my own recipe for Texas style chili. What makes it Texas style you ask? Well, simply because I’m from Texas and it’s the style chili I grew up eating.
