I had eaten chili before, but nothing like the Texan variety. Wow, was I ever hooked. I learned to embrace all things Tex-Mex. This Perfect Chili Recipe is easy to prepare and freezes beautifully. Give it a try and let me know if you like it. Be advised that this one is spicy. If you aren’t a hot and spicy fan, tone down the peppers to suit you.
