SUSIE’S SIGNATURE CHILI
bbQ & MORE Flavor Method
This chili is all about building flavor in layers. Not more heat… just more depth, richness, and that “what is in this?” finish that keeps everyone coming back for another bowl.
Using a few of our favorite bbQ & MORE products, you can turn a simple pot of chili into something truly special.
INGREDIENTS
1 pound lean ground beef
32 ounces tomato sauce
1 can kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
1 to 2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Does Steak Seasoning (used in place of garlic powder)
Good Sh*t seasoning
Aw Sh*t seasoning
Salt (fresh ground preferred)
Black pepper (fresh ground preferred)
House Seasoning from Season & Shadow
TOOLS WE LOVE
Finamill grinder (for fresh salt and pepper)
Enamel stock pot
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Brown the Beef
In your enamel stock pot, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned.
Drain if needed.
Step 2: Build the Base
Add the tomato sauce and kidney beans.
Stir and bring to a gentle simmer.
Step 3: Build the Chili Flavor
Add 1 to 2 teaspoons chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
This creates that rich, classic chili flavor without adding extra heat.
Step 4: Add the Garlic Layer
Sprinkle in Does Steak Seasoning in place of garlic powder.
This adds a deeper, more savory garlic flavor that blends beautifully into the chili.
Step 5: Layer the Signature Seasonings
Add 1/2 teaspoon Good Sh*t seasoning.
Add a small pinch of Aw Sh*t seasoning.
These create a bold, balanced, and craveable flavor profile.
Step 6: Fresh Grind for Aroma
Using your Finamill grinder, grind salt and black pepper directly into the chili.
Use a medium grind for salt and a slightly coarse grind for pepper.
Fresh grinding releases aroma and enhances the overall flavor in a noticeable way.
Step 7: Finish with Brightness
Add a light sprinkle of House Seasoning from Season & Shadow.
This adds a touch of brightness and rounds out the flavor perfectly.
Step 8: Let It Come Together
Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes to allow all flavors to blend.
This is where everything transforms into a rich, layered chili.
FINAL TASTE CHECK
Taste and adjust if needed:
Add a pinch of salt for more flavor pop
Add a small shake of chili powder for more depth
Add a touch more House Seasoning for brightness
SERVING IDEA
Serve warm and enjoy the depth of flavor in every bite.
Perfect with cornbread, crackers, or straight from the pot for a cozy, comforting meal.
