Description

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package Jimmy Dean Sausage Roll (any flavor will work, we like spicy!)
• 1/2 cup sweet yellow onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 pounds ground chuck (plus water for cooking)
• 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
• 1 can (14.5 ounces) petite-diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 cup water (this is an ingredient. The water above is just for the chuck prep)
• 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained
• 1 can (15 ounces) red beans, drained
• 2 teaspoons cider vinegar
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 package (1 ounce) Original Williams Chili Seasoning
• 1/4-1/2 cup ketchup
• 1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
• 1/2-1 teaspoon salt or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• Possible toppings: chopped onions, hot sauce, sliced jalapenos, shredded cheese, crackers, sour cream, cilantro, or whatever you love!

Directions

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and crumble as it cooks. When almost fully browned, add the onion and garlic. Saute until onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Drain oil if necessary and set aside.
• Place ground chuck in a Dutch oven and use a wooden utensil to crumble. Cover completely with water. Bring water to a boil and boil the meat until brown. Drain the beef in a colander and return to the dutch oven.
• Add the sausage and onion mixture to the ground chuck and stir to combine.
• Mix in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, both types of beans, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, chili seasoning, ketchup, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Mix well and cook the chili, stirring often, over medium-low heat at least 1 hour or until chili has thickened and flavors meld. If it cooks down too much, you can add a bit more water.
• Serve with favorite toppings such as chopped fresh cilantro, chopped onions, cheese, crackers, hot sauce, sliced jalapenos, or a topping of your choice.
