How to Make the Best Chili Ever

[@lukeadams5680]

Can confirm. This chili is amazing. Once I found this recipe, I've never used another one. Keep up the Lord's work sir.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

Thanks for the feedback Luke!

[@stacyyoung2694]

Chili was good. Naturally sweet. Onions killing me this morning.

Beans??? They're for the poor vegetarians. Meat chilli all the way!!!

[@larryharwood4551]

I think I’m done looking for a go to chili! I made it using ground venison, hot Italian sausage and smoked brisket. Really impressed with your chili seasoning! Couldn’t wait the full 8 hours to have a bowl so I grabbed some after about 4 1/2 hours. Maybe the best chili I’ve ever tasted. It’s still simmering on the stove. I’m looking forward to eating another bowl tomorrow!

I have made this chili 4 times now. Each time making small changes. Batch 4 was entered into a contest of nine and took home second place. If I told you what the winner brought a debate would ensue. Thanks Matt for all the content. You have truly changed my life and I have the pounds to prove it.

The most impressive thing is he did all this in a white shirt ! Look how clean that is. True Master !

[@lorigaskill1665]

I have used the same chili recipe for years and won countless cook-offs with it but I decided to try this. It’s very similar other than the chipotle in adobo and the breakfast sausage. It was amazing and I plan to use this for my next cook-off and see how it does. One thing I did different was purée the chipotle peppers to infuse into the whole dish with the flavor. Amazing job, Matt. It’s a hit.

[@vangepueblo2492]

Hey Matt! This recipe never gets old and myself and my family have been using this recipe when it first came out almost 3 years ago. You are right; its a hit at almost any event as we use it for any family function and it could be summer time as its just that dang good! Keep the cooks and videos coming as we look forward to them every time.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

Love to hear it!

[@adammageli9818]

Followed the recipe to a T and it is probably the best chili I have ever had. Certainly the best I've ever made. My husband definitely agrees. The smoked chuck roast is such a great idea and the meat church seasoning is amazing. Thanks

[@joshh5853]

Chili is one of my favorite recipes to play with, this is one of the best without going through the trouble of rehydrating peppers yourself! I do like to mix and match tomatoes, also usually add in a tbs of cumin

[@jrebel7231]

Made this chili for Super Bowl party and deemed the best chili everyone had ever tasted! I do like the smoked chuck roast instead of beans. As far as your videos, keep them coming and I truly like the step by step method in which you do things. And I smoked mine on my 1st gen Traeger (for those who remember the Little Tex now the Pro 22).

[@ronaldbell190]

Matt love the channel. A couple of years ago I saw your Brisket chili and I make it several times a year. My family went from tolerating chili to loving it and requesting it. Your chili seasoning is the bomb and I always now have 2 bags on hand. Keep up the good work!!

[@jaydubya7012]

I have never seen or heard of you until I came across you today while researching chili recipes. It just so happed that I pick up a pack of your chili seasoning about a month ago. What a coincidence. I made my chili recipe and used your seasonings. Its still simmering as we speak but so far it is awesome.

[@Cdhowe45]

I’ve made this recipe twice in the last 2 weeks. Hands down the best chili recipe out there! You would think award winning chili should be more complex to pull off but no, super easy! It’s a fantastic way to keep a big crowd nice and warm! Thanks Matt for the work you and your team do!

[@HeavyMetalMike]

His spice blend is where the complexity is. Might have to try it.

[@Cdhowe45]

I agree 100%. Do yourself a favor and get some!

[@strouth64]

Did you use the chili seasoning in this recipe or make your own? I prefer not to purchase pre-made seasonings.

[@Cdhowe45]

@@strouth64 I used Matt’s seasoning. Theory being..why fix it if ain’t broke AND wins awards at office competitions. But if you like making your own, there’s nothing wrong with that either.

[@strouth64]

@@Cdhowe45 Well, a) because I don't want to pay $11 to $14 for the spices alone. b) I like the idea of using fresh ground spices, and, c) I don't mind taking the time to make my own spice dump (as Matt did for his Texas Red chili). But, yeah, it's great to have the option of using a ready made chili seasoning.

[@codyseale]

I just won the church chili cook off with this recipe a few weeks ago by watching the video from a couple years ago, AND finally took down the reining champion.............my wife. I told her I was coming for her and needed something special, so this was what I went with. I love it!

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

NICEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

[@AndyL.-bk4rn]

I made this recipe for Father’s Day today. 8 hours at 225 deg. F. in my smoker. This recipe makes a little over 5 qts. of chili to start so a 5 qt. Dutch oven will be very full, 7 qt. or larger would be optimal. I used a 9 qt. Dutch oven and It cooked down to 4 qts. after 8 hours. I followed the recipe rather closely, subbing sirloin for chuck roast and 1 lb. of hot Italian sausage instead of hot breakfast sausage. The chili came out awesome! Everyone in my family loved it. I’m not a fan of beans in chili myself and here in the Northeast in New England it’s almost impossible to find chili without beans. The heat level is moderate and just about anyone should be able to eat it. The 1 lb. of cubed meat definitely makes it a hardier meal alright. This is a solid recipe that would be great as a base for a lot of future experimentation and different variations. I’m no chili expert or connoisseur by any means but I know what I like and I like this one! Thanks for posting this video.

[@paulortaliz720]

Took this recipe and made it my own. Turned out to be the best chili I ever ate. I appreciate the videos you make and showing people how to make good food.

[@scottyaklin8226]

Great video, MeatChurch! As a historical note, the original reason why Texas Red (or any genuine Texas chili) doesn't have beans is because that's what Cookie fed the cowboys on for most of the cattle drive. Beans were cheap, plentiful, didn't spoil, easy to cook and packed lots of protein. Beans were served daily and the men got tired of them after a while. On those rare occasions when they had fresh beef, the last thing they wanted to mix it with was beans!

[@abmtz8537]

I’m from Texas, and honestly I can’t even imagine chili without beans. I honestly think that the whole “no beans on chili” is just a fad.

[@scottyaklin8226]

Not a fad, @@abmtz8537 ... the original Texas Red had no beans because cowboys wanted something without beans! The main reason beans were put into chili is because beans are cheap filler. Chili was a poor folks meal and beans would make a pot of chili go further. Beans were put in by necessity, not choice.

[@ryankiblinger3382]

Chili doesn't have beans. Ever. But Chili also does NOT have tomatoes.

[@scottyaklin8226]

True, @@ryankiblinger3382 good point. Honest to God chili doesn't have tomatoes because Cookie didn't have them in his chuck wagon. He had masa flour, dried chili peppers, garlic, cumin, onions (if he was lucky) and that's about it!

[@davidward1259]

Finally made this. I concur, this is absolutely amazing. The wife picked up "salsa style" fire roasted diced tomatoes by accident. It was a good thing. In addition to the fire roasted tomatoes, it also had bits of fire roasted jalapeno's and chipolte's as well (not much, but it's there). Other than that, straight as in the video (28 oz tomato sauce, and 4 cans of the fire roasted). If you have not made this, you need to!!!

[@rupertellis7976]

Won my chili cookoff at work with this, awesome recipe thank you so much! Only change I made was I used Guinness instead of a Boch style beer as it was what I had on hand, and used hot italian sausage. Hats off, your seasoning on point!

[@misterc9048]

Got a batch of this on my pellet smoker right now. I've been using the methods from this video aside from adding beer and the meat church seasoning. This time is my first time with the meat church seasoning and do the season I smoked a turkey breast and then also cooked some ground turkey. We're at 6 hours on the smoker and I just had a taste. Sensational

[@peterkunka2694]

THIS is the chili recipe I've been looking for... not for the debate of beans or not... but, for how it's put together with different cuts of meat. It's not flat with all ground beef as a base... But, combining ground beef with seasoned sausage, and then adding sliced pieces of smoked steak, is genius. Multiple levels of texture and flavor is a winner. Some folks are commenting about the spiciness, but, I'd tone it down a bit so I could enjoy more of it. This will be an RV camping recipe to try soon... with the chili in the crock pot while I slow cook a steak on the charcoal grill to cut and add to it. Cornbread muffins or campfire russets would be perfect as sides. Congrats on the busy cooking meetings with the teams, and the re-grand opening of the place. Glad you had time to make a good chili video... looked like you had fun cooking in front of the camera again. Cheers! Pete in Arizona - KI7LIL

I've been on a quest to find a solid chili recipe for the past year. I've had several "best chili" recipes, only to be disappointed. This one absolutely rocked the house! Bold flavor.

[@Tinyjb0]

Just made this recipe. Pan seered the chuck roast and used a slow cooker on high for 3 hours instead of on low all day (I had to try this out when I got home after reading it!), it turned out great! It was super easy to make. The most difficult thing about this is dicing the onions and searing the chuck roast. If you know how to do those two things, you can make this dish lmao. I added a modelo instead of a dark lager. Also, I used some other chili-seasoning because I did not have yours on hand. Either way, this will be my go-to base recipe for chili!

My new go to chili! I used ground venison, hot Italian sausage and smoked brisket. I’m really impressed with your chili seasoning Matt.

I gotta say I'm very proud of my personal chili recipe. Smoked brisket and venison chili ground meat, a little dark roast coffee and a touch of semi sweet chocolate at the finish. Won a few contests with it. But I'm very interested to try this one, if only to enjoy a different recipe. Gonna order your chili seasoning and give it go. Only thing I worry about is my wife doesn't anything with ANY pick in it whatsoever and this recipe calls for one can of chilis in adobo. Guess we'll have to see if she can take it because I'm cooking it.

[@MrScubajsb]

There's insulated. Mugs are awesome and I do the exact same thing. When I make milkshakes I put them in my yeti tumbler because guess what it's insulated and it doesn't melt! Soup and chili fit perfectly in those mugs and you can hold it easily without having to hold on to a hot bowl and your chili stays nice and toasty. Gotta love it 👍🏻

When I make chili these days, I try to add another beef product to the ground beef and brown it in the same pot as the ground beef before adding the onions, garlic etc. I haven't yet added smoked meat.

Add another winner to the mix! Thank you so much for this recipe. You said make it your own; this is what I did: - I seasoned a brisket overnight. Butcher shop cut me a 1.88 lb slab - seared it on both sides in a cast iron skillet (so it developed a nice crust) early am the day before the contest, then roasted it with a baste wrapped in foil slow & low all day then let it rest - after work, added 1 lb of sirloin, 2 lbs of ground beef and 1 lb of ground breakfast sausage - used a Guinness and added a tbsp of cacao powder and a few drops of liquid smoke (I don’t have a smoker and this is the taste I was going for) - followed everything else step by step that you did only added a few things bc I had more meat and was envisioning a specific flavor. Oh added 1 more tbsp of your delicious seasoning - judges blindly tasted all chilis and words to describe this were “phenomenal” “best chili I ever had” “depth & complexity in flavors are outstanding”

[@blaineshores4184]

Did this recipe last year, but instead of Chuck, I did backstrap in it. Amazing. Best chili I’ve ever made.

Growing up my parents would buy either 1/4 or 1/2 cow from a local farm, depending on how many people were on waitlist. The first thing my mom would make is chili. Then, during the fall she made venison chili during hunting season. She ONLY served it from mugs. I only found that wasn’t “normal” when my buddies dad made us chili one day.

Let me just say it was our favorite recipe before. That seasoning though makes it legendary. Not sure why I used exactly the amount he used in the video. Btw we do add beans, so we split the meat mix in half after making it per the recipe. Freeze half and make half. 2 cans each chili,black,kidney beans. Everything else by the video.

[@gregorytragitt2208]

It is the best chili I have ever tasted. I smoked a tri tip overnight to use in the mixture and then cooked the chili for 8 hrs on my Camp Chef using the high smoke setting. I was thinking I would try cold smoking the ground meat a little before searing it when I make it next. Do you think it will be too smoky using cold smoked ground meat? Your chili seasoning is the best.

I make a similar chili with some root vegetables like rutabaga, carrot, and radish. Last year I had a bowl of chili from the Keyhole Bar in Mackinaw City, Michigan that had jerk seasoning in it.

I used the recipe last week. Really amazing. I am going to make some more for a chili cook-off. I have a question I am hoping to get an answer to. If I saute the onions, garlic, and chipotle peppers the day before and place the mixture n the fridge overnight, would it lose any flavor or hurt the end result in any way? The reason I ask is that I have to get the chili on the smoker by 7:00 AM to have it ready for the cook-off. Anything i can do the day before helps.I will cook all the meat the day before.

My dad use to make 10lbs of chili every winter and freeze it in blocks. I remember he would buy chili meat at the store i don't think it was ground beef i miss my dad he made some good chili he died in 1994. True Texas chili has no beans but u can add them if u want happy eating. merry Christmas
