Of course, my husband always has a can of Wolf Brand chili in the pantry. It's not much different from a can of dog food, if you ask me My daughter calls to ask if I have an extra can so they can make hot dogs. People love this stuff! |
You are not a true Texan if you don't love Wolf Brand Chili. Just sayin......

I think Ferd has a good chili recipe here somewhere, but I have used Wick Fowler's chili. He gave my husband a case of his chili kit a while back. So, that makes me a true Texan. 
Wick Fowler's "Two Alarm" Chili
Wick Fowler, a Texas journalist, was one of the contestants in the first Chili Cook-Off at Terlingua, Texas in 1967.
3 pounds Chili meat*
1 (15-oz) can Tomato Sauce
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
1 level Tablespoon ground oregano
1 level tablespoon ground cumin
6 Red Chili peppers (optional)
4 heaping Tablespoons chili powder
1 level tablespoon Paprika
2 tablespoons flour
Water
Sear meat in skillet with onions and garlic. When meat is thoroughly seared, add the tomato sauce, and enough water to cover the meat. All all other ingredients. Cover with 1/2 inch water and stir, mixing well. Simmer for at least 1 1/2 hours (or longer), stirring occasionally. Towards the end of the cooking time, skim off the fat and add the flour mixed with enough warm water to make a thin paste. Stir well and cook until chili thickens. (Serves 6 to 8)
*(Chili Meat is coursely ground round steak or well-trimmed chuck)

Good grief, that would kill me. I don't eat chili often at all. Just enough to stay a Texan.

It took me a while to find something I liked. Mainly, because it would come out tasting more like flour. That's one reason I don't like banana bread - it always just tastes like moist flour. lol
I couldn't figure out why and still don't know why it tasted that way with the spices. I just kept looking around as I never could get into the canned enchilada sauces, although, the green isn't too bad.
When I eat out, I like to see if I can recognize the spices, etc., they put in the food. I have several great Chinese food recipes. Very good!
