CLYDE'S FAMOUS CHILI

Recipe Introduction
Sweet and slightly hot, this saloon-style chili with beans has been a staple on Clyde's menu for thirty years. Liz Taylor would order it by the gallon and have it shipped to her house! Since we no longer offer our chili in the can at Britches clothing store, it's only fair that we give you the recipe that has been top secret for many years.
List of Ingredients
1 tbsp
vegetable oil
1 lb.
pound small diced onion
1 tbsp
minced fresh garlic
1 1/2 lbs
ground beef
1
25-ounce can chili beans
1
12-ounce jar chili sauce
2 tbsp
light chili powder
1/4 cup
dark chili powder*
2 tblsp
Worcestershire sauce
Recipe
. In a heavy bottomed pot, saute the onion and garlic in the vegetable oil until golden brown.
2. Add the beef to the onions and cook until it is about medium-rare. Do not stir the beef around too much - you want to have some large clumps of beef in the finished chili.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until it is just blended. (It may seem like a lot of powder but that's why they call it chili!)
4. Cook the chili over medium heat for about 10 minutes, just until the meat is fully cooked. Don't overcook it!
Serve the Clyde's chili with ice cold beer and condiments like shredded sharp cheddar cheese, sour cream and minced onions.
*The light chili powders have more of the hot seeds or flakes ground with the pods. By using more of the dark powder our chili is a little sweeter.
