There’s nothing quite like golden brown corn bread and chili on a cold night. I like to make mine Neely style, beginning with a little pig in the pan and sauteing some onion and bell pepper. I let the vegetables get soft, then add my seasonings–chili powder, garlic powder, italian seasoning and of course, salt and pepper. Then comes the ground beef and after it’s brown, I add a can of italian diced tomatoes. Then I drain a can of light red kidney beans and a can of dark red kidney beans and throw them in. I follow that up with a little beer, whatever you have around the house…gives it great flava flav. And just like my daddy would say, “That chili don’t need nothing but eatin’!”



This looks wonderful – after my poor long-suffering husband made chili from scratch the first imte I have never opened another can…great photos!
Ha, ha! I completely agree. Once you’ve made chili from scratch, there’s no going back. Thanks for stopping by and especially for commenting!
