Preparation

Step 1

Brown the beef in a skillet or stew pot.
Add onion and garlic and cook until tender.
Add flour and stir until flour is mixed in and smooth. Cook for at least 1 minute to insure there will be no "flour taste". (note: this step creates a roux or thickener for the chili).
Add all ingredients to meat mixture in a stew pot and bring to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat and let simmer for at least 20 minutes.
