Ingredients

Scale

Meats

  • 4 oz smoked turkey bacon, finely chopped
  • 1 lb ground beef

Liquids

  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)

Spices and Seasonings

  • 1 tsp onion powder (natural)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (natural)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika (natural)
  • 1 tsp cumin (natural)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Crushed red pepper flakes (optional, to taste)

Other

  • 1 tsp natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Meat: Finely chop the smoked turkey bacon and brown it in a large pot over medium heat until crisp and fragrant. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until fully browned and no longer pink. This builds the rich, meaty foundation.
  2. Season the Meat: Sprinkle onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper over the browned meat. Stir thoroughly to evenly coat the meat with the warm, aromatic spices, infusing bold, layered flavors.
  3. Add Broth and Vegetarian Worcestershire Sauce: Pour in the beef broth and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). The broth provides a savory, warming base while the Worcestershire sauce adds subtle tang and umami to enhance the seasoning.
  4. Incorporate Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the natural gelling agent evenly into the pot, stirring continuously to thicken the chili without changing its hearty texture. Allow the mixture to simmer gently to marry flavors and deepen richness.
  5. Adjust and Simmer: Taste the chili and adjust seasonings as needed with extra salt, pepper, or smoked paprika. Let it simmer on low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until it becomes luscious and thick.

Notes

  • Use fresh or recently opened spices for maximum flavor impact.
  • Brown meat thoroughly to add caramelized depth to the chili.
  • Simmer gently to fully develop spice blending and texture.
  • Allow the natural gelling agent to work gradually for optimal consistency.
  • Rest chili off heat for 10 minutes before serving to let flavors settle.
