Chili Real Texas Chili

---

There are many cities that claim to be the birthplace of chili, but it was born on the cattle trails of texas. This will be a big surprise for a lot of you, but real texas chili does not have beans or chunks of tomato. I say that to say this; if you want to experience what early cowboys of texas experienced then follow this recipe. Oh yeah, don't freak out by the amount of chili powder. If you like your chili hot and spicy leave as is, if you like it spicy omit the cayenne.
