For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of ground beef and ground pork or chorizo.
If you prefer a thinner chili, add more tomato sauce or a cup of beef broth.
To deepen the flavor profile, add a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder or a teaspoon of ground cumin during the simmering process.
Serve with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, cilantro, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Leftover chili tastes even better the next day! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
