It’s been getting little chilly in Florida lately, so that means the time has arrived to start making hot, comforting foods! For that reason, today I’m sharing a MAPLE-BACON CHILI recipe that is sure to give you food-comfort in all the right ways!
For this recipe, you’ll need two of our best selling seasonings: the Farmhouse Chili and the Maple-Bacon mix. It’s time to get those stock pots out!!
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp. canola oil
4 strips of bacon, diced
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground spicy Italian sausage
1 large white onion, diced
2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 cups water
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
¼ cup maple syrup
3 Tbsp Farmhouse Chili Seasoning
3 Tbsp Maple Bacon Seasoning
1 cup dark beer or ½ cup of bourbon, optional
Instructions:
Heat a large stock pot over medium heat. Add oil, bacon, and onion and sautee until onions and bacon are lightly cooked and browned. Add ground beef and sausage, cook until completely browned and no pink remains. Stir occasionally to break up meat. Add all remaining ingredients, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes until flavors are well combined. Serve with sour cream, green onions, cheddar cheese, crisply cooked crumbled bacon or desired toppings.
Yum, yum!! Enjoy!!
