Simple Champion Chili

Directions

Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Sauté the beef until beginning to develop a fond; those brown bits add flavor.

Add onions and garlic and continue cooking until aromatic, about 1 minute.

Add beef stock or broth, bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for about 1 ½ hours.

Stir in the tomato sauce, chili powder, and cumin; continue simmering on low heat for another hour, stirring occasionally.

Add water if needed. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
