Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds grass-fed ground beef I used leaner beef with 5% fat
  • 1 pound Italian sausage casings removed I used Spicy Italian from Trader Joe’s
  • 1/2 pound bacon ensure it’s sugar-free to stay Whole30 compliant
  • 2 (28 oz) cans diced tomatoes with juice
  • 1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper seeded and chopped
  • 2 cups beef stock homemade or compliant brand use bone broth for an even richer taste
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste

Instructions

  1. Warm up a large stock pot on medium-high heat and brown the ground beef along with the sausage by breaking them apart in the pan. Drain the fat after cooking.
  2. In another pan, crisp the bacon, crumble it, and add it to the stock pot. Use the bacon fat to sauté chopped onion and bell pepper until the onion turns translucent.
  3. Add diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef stock to the pot. Mix in garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cover and let simmer gently for at least 2 hours, stirring once in a while.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning after 2 hours, and simmer longer if desired for deeper flavors.
  5. Take the pot off the heat and serve the chili immediately or cool and refrigerate to serve later with your choice of toppings like extra onions or crispy bacon.

Notes

  • To prepare this chili in a slow cooker, brown the beef and sausage and cook bacon separately, then sauté onion and bell pepper in bacon fat
  • Combine all ingredients in the slow cooker, mix well, and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours
  • Adjust seasonings before serving
  • For the Instant Pot method, brown meats and bacon using sauté mode, add vegetables, spices, and liquids
  • Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes, then natural release for 10 minutes
  • Thicken with sauté mode if needed before serving
