No Bean Chili

A thick and heart soup with no beans. This simple No Bean Chili is one of my favorite ways to make chili.

No Bean Chili

Beans have to be one of my least favorite foods. I don’t see myself as a picky eater really and would try most anything. Beans though I just can’t move past and have never been a fan of them. I did grow up outside Cincinnati and we don’t have beans in our chili there. This chili isn’t a Cincinnati style chili (<– if you want to try that click there) but it is a hearty chili just without the beans.

 How to Make No Bean Chili:

Start with a large pot that will fit all your ingredients later. I used a 7 quart pot that worked perfectly. In a large pot cook and crumble ground beef. Drain fat then add in onions, bell peppers, and garlic. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes until tender.  Add in crushed tomatoes, petit diced tomatoes, and all seasonings. All to cook on low and shimmer for 45-50 minutes. Serve topped with optional garnish and serve.

How to Freeze this recipe:

Once your chili is cooked you want to cool it before you can freeze it. Do not place your hot chili in the fridge or freezer until cooked. You can remove from heat and place on the stove top until cool or to cool it a little laster you could place it in a sink with some ice on the bottom. The ice will bring the pots temperature down quicker which will help cool your chili faster. Once you cooled you can place in a freezer container or a freezer bag. When you are ready to serve start by thawing it in the refrigerator.  Then place it in a large pot and bring to a boil. Serve and enjoy!

What is good to serve with chili?

  • Cornbread
  • Hot Dogs
  • French Fries (this chili is perfect for chili cheese fries)
  • Sour cream
  • Diced Jalapeños
  • Tortilla chips
  • Shredded cheese
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Fresh parsley
  • Diced fresh onion
