My husband always put cumin in his chili. The sugar cuts the acid in the tomatoes and makes it easier on digestive system. Good job

The chili seasoning he used (from McCormicks) has cumin in it.

First of all your chili looks delicious. Im from Texas and we add a whole lot more chili powder and cumin, crushed garlic or garlic powder and onions along with the tomato sauce. Most Texans don’t put beans in their chili but I was also taught to cook by a father who was a fine cook (and was a yankee from New York) and he put beans in our chili. Mother always set the table and cleaned up the kitchen after dinner.

Tom, I find that when I use my meat chopping tool like the one you have, I keep using it even once the meat gets brown. It helps to get the meat off that tool. Also if you go ahead and scoop most of that fat from the meat it helps you get those brown bits on the meat. That’s been my experience. I wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed your video. I like how you tell us each ingredient that you use. Then you guys go the extra mile by writing out the recipe and giving it to us in the description. That’s so thoughtful. And much appreciated. Thank you so much! God bless you and your family. You’re such a sweet man and thoughtful! You are so right about having someone to cook for. Our kids are grown and gone but I do still enjoy having them all over and cooking for them. I just enjoy cooking! Now it’s just me bc I lost my husband to brain cancer. We were married 39 years.

[@aliciasalvato3261]

I use brown sugar and it does add so much flavor to the chili. For the 3 lbs of meat you are using , I would use 2 cans of kidney beans.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

[@ramonagatewood2019]

This recipe is very similar to mine. I started adding a dash or two of cinnamon to my chili and was very pleasantly surprised. It makes so much difference to the flavor and takes it up a notch.

[@cathylongstreth5405]

Can you tell the cinnamon is in there by taste, or just the richness? I've always wanted to try it, but don't want to ruin a whole batch.

[@ramonagatewood2019]

@cathylongstreth5405 There is just enough cinnamon to enhance the chili. You can taste something different, but there's is not enough of a cinnamon flavor to recognize it as such.

[@pamelacurtis7685]

Several years ago I was making a pot of chili and I thought I got the chili powder. I was wrong. I grabbed the cinnamon but I only put a little in it before I smelled it. Then I added the chili powder as usual. I have to say it was the best chili I ever made. Now I always put a little cinnamon in it.

[@maryseaman312]

Welcome to KZbin! I use a table knife to clean out the Pampered Chef breaker-upper. Not because I am afraid of touching the meat, but because I just don't want to have to wash off my hands and I don't mind washing a table knife. Until I saw the pampered chef tool, I used a fork! My mother was a restaurant cook, but I could never handle kitchen tools like she could - - plus, when I started cooking for my children, we couldn't really afford to buy kitchen utensils - - I just learned to work with what I had. I was really impressed with the Pampered Chef tool. Good for you! You poured some of the onions in (keep in mind that I only use onions because I could care less, but I am sure REAL men like onions!), gave the hamburger a couple of stirs and I thought: Not enough onions! Sure enough! You went for the bag! Good on you! I am not a cook (just not domesticated much) but I could tell by the color ... I don't know what made your final decision, but I APPLAUDED! YES! By the time it is all chili, no one is going to actually taste onion when they bite into it, are they? It is the texture they want, I think ... same with the cut up tomatoes ... I like smooth chili sauce - - tomatoes must be for texture! (That is all I can figure) Okay! I like big chunks of hamburger, so I put in four pounds of hamburger - - if my chili lasts a week, that is five days less cooking I have to do, so I always made chili in the biggest pot I could find. Just for the record - - when I made spaghetti, I filled a roaster pan full ... again, fewer meals to make. I was privileged enough (being born and raised on a ranch) that the idea of buying five pounds of hamburger and parceling out over a week was just beyond my ken. I have really enjoyed life and living ... and people I raised grew up to adulthood without food poisoning or ever going hungry. They all live away from me now, but it always sounds to me like they live in diners. No problem - - if I could have afforded it, I would have done that too. AND! Every one of those kids cook dishes I have never considered making - - so, they did learn something from me. and, oh yeah! I use a lot more water in my chili - - I like a little chili with my crackers. LOL Oh, Melissa! You are BEAUTIFUL! I can see why you like to cook, Tom. She is well worth all the "Babe"s and affection you show her! The two of you are a good team. I also top my chili with cheddar cheese and sour cream .... I eat my chili with a fork! LOL. Grilled cheese sandwiched with ham is a stand alone dinner. Differences are great, aren't they????

[@debramehan8644]

My father made the best chili i ever ate. He is gone now and i miss him greatly. I kept trying to make his chili and i could not get it to taste the same. I finely asked him what in the world i was doing wrong. He said are you using a lot of celery. I had not been adding any.🤦 He said that was his secret. I tried it and it was amazing. If you have never used celery in your chili just try it once. You will not believe the difference. We also use kidney beans. And we dont rinse them. The juice in there helps to thicken the chili. I have never used sugar. That is something i will have to try. Thank you for your recipe. Your channel is my absolute favorite.😊❤❤

You can use a little bit less tomato juice and/or just let the finished chili simmer over low heat for an hour or two (or until it gets as thick as you would like it.) I would just simmer mine down, I think. If you’re reducing the amount of tomato juice, you’re also reducing the amount of flavour.

I love the look of this recipe but I like more chili beans. Can’t wait to try this. Thanks.

Hi Tom, so glad to see that your videographer Melissa is included in this video! We're new to your channel and have just recently begun watching. Everything we've seen you prepare is wonderful. We especially enjoy real-time preparations in the kitchen, without editing things out that don't go well. Those moments just add a larger enjoyment factor for us. Please keep doing what you're doing.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

Welcome to our channel! We are so glad to have you joining us at the table. We try our best to present an honest, quality video that's not too distracting with our mistakes. We appreciate that you've watched our very first video. We were true novices with that one. Not that we are professionals now, but hopefully, we've learned a few things along the way!

[@constance9789]

I think of Chili all year, love Chili and Chili recipes.

[@YouSUBSCRIBE739]

Yesssss! I luv trying diff recipes!

I just saw your first video, the sweet and heat chili, and believe I’ll make it. I’ve just taken over the cooking in the family as my wife can’t do it any more. We’re both in our 80’s. I’m learning from KZbin and have sort of zeroed in on your channel. I’ll be trying the timballo this week. The chili probably next week or so. You make so many good dishes that match our taste, I think we’ll be using a lot of them. Thank you for your contributions. Keep up the good work. Your first try is consistent with your current offerings. Very professionally done from the beginning. I’m glad you widened the format away from the cellphone look. How long did it take to reach 100,000 viewers? I see your at 170,000 now. Congratulations. Ron and Dee Kime, Virginia. Oh I found a new channel, our Texas hoestead, that has about the same recipe for timballo as yours. I think iwas their 5th or 6th like. They seem nice.

I like extra fresh onions and grated cheese on top,and cornbread on the side Toasted cheese sandwiches too. Will try the other sides you suggested. I agree about the milk

[@dianereeves8632]

Looks delicious! Thank you for sharing! I have one of those meat choppers and I use a rubber spatula to clean the raw meat as I cook. I love different types of chilies like chicken I recently made and it includes lots of minced garlic and onion, diced red pepper and near the end of cooking chopped zucchini. I always rinse my beans as well. I always put cheddar cheese on whichever chili I make and cornbread is a wonderful side

[@marysharvey]

I love your channel. I always use sugar in my recipes that have tomato sauce, it cuts the acidity. I’m going to try this recipe next week. We have had our first snow of the season today, so it’s Chili time!

[@bobbyhogan9207]

So so glad yall made this channel ❤ My favorite cooking 🥘 channel 👊😎

[@annlee4174]

I totally agree with you about folks who do not scrape bowls well! Drives me crazy!! Such a waste!!

[@evelynwilliams5174]

Hi,I always make rice with mine. And use sour cream on top grated Mexican blend cheese. Never tried tomato juice but will give it a try next time. Also I don’t rinse and drain the beans. Always comes out great.👍

[@donnacrockett6201]

Been watching for a while now and love all your recipes. So glad to have come across this one. Thank you for welcoming us into your home.

[@braxtonchurch4231]

Looks really good but I’ve never had chili with sugar in it before. Looks delicious. I never drain my chili beans love that sauce in mine. Keep cooking.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

Thanks for your nice message! We appreciate you watching.

[@robinpfiester]

I use brown sugar in my chili and spaghetti sauce too.

[@indiakant4796]

RIGHT..NEVER DRAIN THE BEANS..MUCH FLAVOR IN THAT SAUCE.

[@brendalamson2493]

Never heard of sugar in chilie. I'm going to try it and see if the extra calories are worth adding it. 🎉 Thank you for sharing...❤😊

[@Gracie994]

Love this chli, just made it. Waiting for it to cook and it smells wonderful! I did add green pepper to mine and some stewed tomatoes with hot salsa, I didn't have Rotella sauce. Thank you Tom & Melissa, love you both. Keep these recipes coming in. Have a Blessed day❤😊

[@user-nn7us2jp3p]

Good chili video ! I’m looking forward to seeing your pimento cheese sandwich video too.

[@GraceGray-j2q]

I love the flavor it gives the chilli.

[@theresarasmussen8229]

I had never made Chili before so thanx for this recipe. I've saved it n will make it.❤ I do have to say u make this look easy. I have things scattered all over my kitchen when I cook. Lol😊

[@comesitatmytable9044]

You can do it! Just take it step by step and it will be fantastic. It's okay if the kitchen gets a bit messy, too! 😊

[@carlenebarnes8615]

Yummy, i love chili. Thanks for showing this.

[@MaryX-cl4mw]

All the dishes you make look so delicious & they're simple to make. 😊

[@janethenderson2801]

Just came across your first video, the Chile looks delicious. And I like seeing you two sitting at the table.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

Thank you so much for watching our very first attempt! We were such novices. Not that we are by any means experts now, but we have learned a lot. We started our channel at the table, but we got a lot of comments that the videos were too long, so we cut that part to make them more efficiently presented videos. We truly appreciate that you are a part of our channel.

[@patriciamorrison5372]

You Folks Are So Genuine. Gonna try this one !

[@SueWaltman-jr7gx]

Enjoy your show very informative

[@sheila219]

I love a good chili i always cook it for get togethers bc its easy i also add onions bell peppers and jalipenos. I love me a spicy hot chili to warm me up in the fall/winter

[@nancywaddell289]

I put sugar in any tomato sauce dish. My Grandma made it that way. It's great.

[@jodiejividen1847]

I love the way you clean as you go & scrape your bowls completely!! My mother taught me to clean my bowls completely and peel as little potato skins as possible when peeling potatoes. I agree with "waste not want not" 100%. I have thoroughly enjoyed all your videos. You talking slow I like also!!!! Jodie from WEST Virginia the Mountain and friendly state. God bless you two.

[@TommyG5585]

Very nice enjoy
