I didn't think this would be his 'exact' recipe, can't blame him of course. This is an ok recipe. On the show he dumps the raw meat in along with the tomatoes and the spices and lets it go, he didn't brown his meat first, so that's the way I did it and it turned out fine. I used 85/15 meat so it had just a little grease on it but I drained the chili in a collander before storing any leftovers and it didn't hurt the flavor any (I added a touch of water when re-heating it. I also thought the portions were a little off. I used about 3 1/2 pounds of ground beef with this recipe because I believe on the show he uses 5 pounds with more tomatoes and spices. The 3 - 3 1/2 pounds of meat works well with these measurements. The flavor was off a little, almost bland. I'm sure he's omited something - after all, who wants to give away their Prize Winning Recipe - I can't blame him!! To me, this is a better chili for hot dogs or tacos. It wasn't juicy at all, which is OK by me, but I do prefer a little juicier chili if eating it by itself. The total cooking time for me was around 2 hours. I'm going to watch the episode again and pay closer attention! LOL. The recipe listed here also omits the red pepper flakes he dumps in at the last, so I just threw a few in - a scant teaspoon full, I didn't get any heat from it at all. I might try turkey meat next time. :

Comparing quantities in the recipe appears to differ when you see Mark adding the powders and onions to the pot. Also looks like he was holding a much larger can of tomatoes then 12 ounces.
I am going to try and make a batch but increase ingredients with same amount of ground beef.
