Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this chili with something other than ground beef?
Absolutely. Ground turkey, chicken, pork, or your favorite plant-based protein all work beautifully. You can also skip the meat and add extra beans, mushrooms, or hearty vegetables for a satisfying vegetarian chili. Just swap the beef broth for vegetable stock.
How can I make my chili thicker or thinner?
For a thicker, richer chili, simmer it uncovered so some of the liquid can evaporate. Prefer it a little soupier? Simply stir in water or additional stock until it reaches your ideal consistency.
Can I add vegetables or other ingredients?
Please do! Chili welcomes improvisation. Bell peppers, onions, corn, mushrooms, sweet potatoes, or extra beans are all excellent additions. Think of our House Chili Mix as the flavorful foundation, then make the pot your own.
Can I make this chili ahead of time?
Yes—and we encourage it. Chili is one of those wonderful dishes that tastes even better the next day, after the spices have had more time to mingle. Cool it, refrigerate it in an airtight container, then gently reheat before serving.
What are the best toppings for chili?
A good bowl of chili loves a finishing touch. Try shredded cheese, sour cream, sliced scallions, avocado, fresh cilantro, crushed tortilla chips, or pickled jalapeños. A squeeze of lime adds a bright contrast to the chili's deep, savory flavors.
