Steakhouse Chili

Steakhouse Chili

Chili is a family favorite around our house.  I have made many varieties of chili and I think this is my favorite.  I love the big chunks of tender steak.  It is so rich with flavor without being too hot and spicy.  For those who love the hot and spicy, jalapenos would be a great addition.  I am just too big of a sissy to handle the jalapeno, please forgive me and add them if you like. Most of the time, leftover chili is non-existent around here, but if you have leftovers, chili burritos, chili cheese nachos, and chili stuffed baked potatoes are some of my favorite ways to finish off a batch.
