"My chili recipe, it's pretty basic run of the mill, nothing fancy but you have to make it a day or more ahead, I have learned through my years of cooking that any tomato sauce recipe taste way better made a day or two ahead. Hope you like this recipe!"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat the bacon fat in a 6-quart pot. Add the onions and bell pepper and celery and jalapenos, cook, stirring until softened (this should take around about 8 minutes).
Step 2
Add the garlic, chili powder, and cumin and cinnamon, stir to coat the vegetables, and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the ground beef and measured salt & pepper and cook, breaking the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until the beef is no longer pink, about 8 minutes.
Step 3
Add next three ingredients, cook over medium-low heat for 2 hours, stirring quite a lot of times during cooking, and also seasoning with more salt if you need to.
Step 4
Add in the beans and keep cooking for 25-30 more minutes.
Step 5
Cool the chili to about room temperature then place the pot in the fridge for 24 hours or even more.
Step 6
Take the pot out of the fridge and rewarm the chili.
Step 7
Serve in bowls topped with the toppings.
