Why steak chili = the best beef chili
The flavor is unbelievably rich. Think of a slow-cooked roast in chili form. The big chunks of tender beef make us wonder why they’re not in every beef chili recipe. It’s a simple chili that is all about the flavorful tomato sauce, the melt-in-your-mouth chuck steak, and a few beans.
How to make the best steak chili
Avoid any of the lean cuts intended to be served on a plate. Rib-eye, sirloin, and porterhouse are a few examples of steak NOT to use. You’ll know which ones they are as they’ll be the most expensive. They will dry out when simmered for hours and you’ll end up with tough bits of meat in your chili. We don’t want this! Instead, look for the cheapest cuts of steak. The inexpensive cuts get better the longer that they are cooked. Also, try our delicious pulled pork chili! The toppings we liked the best on this steak chili are:
Nacho chips. Specifically, these crunchy Beanfields Nacho Chips, but I’m sure that others are great, too. Minced red onion. Or pickled red onion. I use this recipe from David Lebovitz and had some on hand from a batch of carnitas I recently made and they go AMAZING with steak chili. Cilantro. We love the flavor.
