Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 cup water
- 1/8 cup chile powder
Directions
Brown the ground beef and add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin and bay leaf. Continue cooking meat in its own juices. If meat dries up add a little water. Next, begin adding the chile powder. Add water and let simmer for a short while. If you desire to add beans to your chile you should add cooked pinto beans now.
Serve in bowls and garnish with cheese and onions and hot flour tortillas or crackers. This chile may also be served over enchiladas or tamales or added into Chile con Queso

This is probably the best chili con carne recipe on this website. The rest seem too gimmicky to be good chili recipes.

I used this on my enchiladas, and it added a great flavor to the meal.

It was a fast and easy meal to fix if you don't have a lot of time, but it needs a little something to spice it up or sweeten it up depending on your taste.
