Ingredients

1 pound coarsely ground beef chuck
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 shallot, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded, chopped
1/2 jalapeno pepper, halved, seeded chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper, or to taste
Salt, to taste
1 cup Gallo burgundy wine
1 (16 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (16 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (16 ounce) bag corn chips

Directions

In a medium, hot soup pot brown the chuck with the thyme, sage and garlic. When browned remove and drain beef. Set aside. In the same pot heat the oil and add the onion, garlic, shallot, red bell pepper and jalapeno. Saute until vegetables begin to brown, about 7 to 10 minutes. Add chili powder, cayenne pepper, chipotle pepper, salt and cook, stirring, until spices begin to stick to the pan. Add Gallo burgundy and cook until liquid is reduced by 1 half. Add tomatoes and bring to a boil. Stir in beans and reserved beef and simmer, partially covered, over medium low heat for 1 hour. Serve with corn chips. Chili may be made, up to 2 days in advance and kept covered and refrigerated. Reheat to serve.

Easy - nice kick, first time making chili
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I too as others have suggested, added more tomatoes (28 oz) and it turned out fine. I started to add the beef and it started... to get way too thick. I had an 8 oz can of tomato sauce off hand and added that in as the last step. If it's too runny, you can just cook off the liquid to your liking. My boyfriend suggested adding the whole jalapeno for next time, but it would be way too hot for me! This was my first attempt at making homemade chili and my friends were impressed! :)Read more

Easy, Pleasing recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this my go-to chili recipe which I've used numerous times over the past few years. I first tried it because I... preferred black beans over the usual red bean chilis and was intrigued by the idea of using red wine in a chili recipe. I also added some more crushed tomatoes (actually a lot more, I used two large cans of crushed tomatoes) and it was still pretty thick in my opinion. It may not be the traditiional chili but it sure is tasty and a nice change of pace. I sometimes add a little more chipotle pepper instead of chili pepper for seasoning also. Overall very good.

My family keeps asking me to make it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this 3 times in the past 2 weeks. It is my families favorite chili recipe. I'm making it again today for my... husbands card group. I'll be putting out a chili bar with cheese, onions, sour cream, fritos or crackers, and possible elbow macaroni. ( I live in Ohio where we are used to having "3 ways" at our chili restaurants - chili, cheese and pasta.). Enjoy.....Read more

Fab!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'm a Texas girl and have tried lots of chili recipes. This is one of the best - top 3, and definitely the best I've ever... made. The first time, I followed the recipe exactly (chose a different, inexpensive wine). Superb! The second time, I left ouf the jalepeno (forgot to buy one), added more garlic, and used a 28 oz can crushed tomato instead of 16 oz...Still great. I will probably not use another recipe for beef chili again.Read more

Amazing!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was my first time making chili, and my husband and I absolutely love this recipe! After making it a couple of times, I... changed just a couple of things- I added about a half can of tomato sauce because mine came out super thick, and I let it simmer on low for about 3 hours- trust me on this one, it really brings out all the amazing flavor this chili has!Read more

Good Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This chili is very meaty and has little liquid, the way that chili should be done. I made this recipe twice. The first time I... followed the instructions as they were, second time around, I added twice the Cayenne and I thought it was better. Either way, it is very good, and it is quick and easy to make. Burgundy in Chili?!... it worked...Read more
