FAQ
How do you make good homemade chili?
By starting with ground beef and basic seasoning.
What do you top chili with?
Toppings for chili are actually quite endless. You can use shredded cheese, sour cream, crushed crackers, Fritos, crushed tortilla chips, jalapenos, tomatoes, or diced onions. Or you can do a combination of these toppings. It’s really up to you.
What to do with leftover chili?
Chili mac, Cincinnati style chili (2 way, 3 way, 4 way, or 5 way), and coney dogs are just a few ways to use up leftover chili.
Do you drain the fat from ground beef for chili?
I normally do. That way it helps remove some of the grease that will harden on top of the chili when you put it in the fridge.
Can you freeze chili?
Yep, you sure can. Just make sure to let it cool completely before you put it into a freezer-safe container. It’s normally good for up to three months.
