Revised: September 18, 2005 – Pictures added!
We always have chili in our fridge. If there isn’t any chili in the fridge, there are probably a few small Ziploc containers with chili frozen in our freezer. If there is no chili in our fridge or freezer, I go out and get the ingredients and make chili. After you read the cooking method, you can tell that I like to make an evening out of cooking HART’s Favorite Chili Recipe. I also take the time to cut up all my red peppers, green peppers, yellow peppers and orange peppers for the week.
Take care.
HART
HARTandYVONNE need their chili!
INGREDIENTS
LEAN GROUND BEEF – between 2.85 kg to 3.25 kg (110-115 oz range)
HEINZ RED KIDNEY BEANS – DARK RED – 1 can, 398 ml size
CLUB HOUSE SEASONING MIX – Hot ‘N Spicy Chili Seasoning – 2 Packets
HUNTS’ ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE – 1078 ml – this is one of those Large cans plus 1 normal sized can
CELERY STICKS – 2 cups – Usually between 4 and 7 sticks, depending on size
ONION SLICES – 4 cups – usually takes 1 extra large WHITE onion and 1 regular sized WHITE onion
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
– Cut the celery sticks in thin slices, put aside
– Cut the onions in thin slices
– Put stove top on MEDIUM heat .. you need a good sized pot and some sturdy mixing utensils
– Don’t forget .. if you have a helper .. try and toss some celery pieces on the floor to be ‘vacuumed’ up! 😀
– Add Lean Ground Beef, breaking up as you place in large pot (with cover)
– Add all onions with the Lean Ground Beef, mix
– Cook and stir periodically, until all the beef is browned, and basically cooked
– Drain the cooked beef and onions, and rinse thoroughly with cold water (all the grease)
– Rinse clean the Large Pot (to remove all the grease)
– Put all the beef and onions back into the pot back onto the stove top at medium
– Add the Hunts Italian Tomato Sauce into the pot
– Add the two packs of Club House Seasoning Mix
– Stir and mix the content thoroughly
– Add the Heinz Red Kidney Dark Red Beans into the pot
– Add the Celery
– Stir and mix the content thoroughly, and repeat every 5 minutes for a half hour … be sure to put the lid on when not stirring
– Give it one big stir, then crank the heat up from Medium to Medium-High .. and leave it for 10 minutes with the lid on .. (this will build up a good little chili sauce)
– Stir thoroughly and turn the heat down to MINIMUM … and leave the lid on the pot
– For 2 hours – on the half hour, I give a really good stir and am not tempted to lift the lid off of the pot.
– After the 2 hours, I leave the pot on the stove, but TURN OFF the stove.
– The chili stays there for another 2 hours or so, when I transfer the chili from the metal pot to freezer’able Ziploc or Rubbermaid containers
– There you have it!
THE STATISTICS
– Makes about 25-27 cups of Chili, depending on amounts of chili or amounts of celery or onions used
– Points Count – 4 points per cup
RECOMMENDED ADD-ONS
– Visit The Peppermaster https://www.pepperfire.ca/pepperstore/index.php?cPath=30&osCsid=j8ptcvtlhmou62efbd5ttanma6 and try some of their samplers and gift packs of their sauces in your chili .. it gives it a great zing, or can add a terrificly hot taste to your mouth!
– Although, the chili is delicious “AS IS” …. Enjoy!
Thanks for the promo… We are thinking of trying your recipe and but replacing the Club House seasoning mix with our Fusion Fire sauce; all natural and the best thing to ever happen to chili, if you ask me.
Btw, what’s in that Club House seasoning packet anyway???

The “club house” seasoning mix is this one…
