A hearty and slightly spicy, smoky chili with a not-so-secret ingredient. Can be made in a large stock pot, but dutch oven recommended.
(If using a dutch oven, preheat oven to 325)
In a pan, saute onion and garlic in butter, remove to a dutch oven or stock pot
Brown ground beef in pan, drain fat, and add to dutch oven/pot
Put tomato sauce, tomatoes, and beans with liquid into dutch oven/pot
Bring dutch oven/pot to a low boil, reduce heat to medium
Add spices, simmer 15 minutes, stirring often
Add melted chocolate, then Tabasco sauce to taste
If using a pot, simmer on low at least 30 minutes, stirring often. If using dutch oven, simmer in oven @ 325 for an hour or so. Stir several times.
Don't let your chili burn to the bottom of the pot while it's simmering. For the chocolate, I just melt half a large bar of Godiva dark chocolate on low in the microwave. The chocolate will counter the spiciness of the chili; I have two little boys who love it.
