We think this is the best Texas chili recipe and the internet seems to agree. In this recipe, we use the flat of a brisket for creating tender morsels of chili meat that doesn't come out tasting like pot roast.

This recipe is in the style of Texas barbecue restaurants and is a chili recipe with no beans.

It's a bit like a chile con carne recipe, but we slowly simmer these chunks of beef until they are one solid soup. In fact, you might find that using an immersion blender after the chili cooking gives you even more of a Texas quality chili. Just buzz it a few times to make it extra broken up and mixed well. :)

Ingredients Used:

• 4 slices thick cut bacon
• 3-4 lb. beef brisket, trimmed
• Kosher salt, pepper, onion powder – for liberally sprinkling on the meat while browning.
• 2 c. white onion, small diced (one large onion)
• 5 garlic cloves, pressed through a garlic press
• 1 T paprika
• 1 T. cumin powder
• 3 ½ T Texas chili powder, such as Mexene or Gebhardt’s
• ½ t. dried thyme
• ½ t. chipotle chile powder
• ½ t. salt
• 1 quart beef broth
• ½ c. strong black coffee (you can save this from your morning coffee)
• 28 oz. can whole tomatoes, in juice

I have full step-by-step instructions on the blog and you can read lots of reviews by readers who have won chili cookoffs using this recipe, made this chili and modified the recipe, or even substituted smoked brisket.

National Champion Chili Recipe (2018)

This chili recipe is a World Champion Chili Recipe from the 2017 Terlingua Chili Cook-Off. This is the championship-winning recipe from Brent Allen. In the video, we show you how to make a competition style chili (which doesn't allow for fresh ingredients) but we do not follow the recipe to a T, so please check out Brent Allen's competition-winning chili recipe here:

All of the world champion recipes are also posted on the Chili Appreciation Society Appreciation website.

There are several different ways to make a red chili recipe and this is a competition championship chili recipe so it does not include many of those raw ingredients found in a home version of the traditional comfort food chili recipe such as onions or peppers. In competition, you can't add raw ingredients so you must use powders. If you want to try this at home -- which I recommend because it is DELICIOUS -- you can buy all of the chili powders I named online.

Texas Red Chili - Bowl of Red

Texas Red Chili - AKA Bowl of Red - AKA Chili Con Carne
The timeframe and origins of chili are debatable such as many things in history. Did it start in the US or did it come from Spain?
In 17th century there is an old Southwestern Native American legend that a chili recipe was put on paper by a beautiful nun, Sister Mary of Agreda of Spain.

In the 18th century there are records in San Fernando de Bar, now know as the city of San Antonio, of a spicy “Spanish” stew that is similar to chili.
In the 19th century things became more clear. Chili was cooked on chuckwagons where Cowboy cooks didn't carry perishable items, it was made popular in Tex prisons, it went national when Texas sets up a stand at the1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago.

My favorite account is the women of San Antonio known as the “Chili Queens” selling this they called chili that was makde with dried chilis and beef in the Military Plaza Mercado. From the July 1927 issue of Frontier Times. In this article, Frank H. Bushick, San Antonio Commissioner of Taxation, The chili stand and chili queens are peculiarities, or unique institutions, of the Alamo City. They started away back there when the Spanish army camped on the plaza. They were started to feed the soldiers. Every class of people in every station of life patronized them in the old days. Some were attracted by the novelty of it, some by the cheapness. A big plate of chili and beans, with a tortilla on the side, cost a dime.

One thing that is not debatable is the original chili started off as Chili Con Carne (chili with meat) and it started off in the Southwest. Chili was about the meat and the flavors from the chilis. There were no fillers such as beans, noodles or rice.

State Dish of Texas - 1977 - RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the State of Texas, the Senate concurring, That the 65th Legislature in recognition of the fact that the only real bowl of red is that prepared by Texans, hereby proclaims chili as the State Dish of Texas.
