Directions:
- Cube the beef into bite-sized chunks.
- Dice the bacon.
- Heat a large heavy pot, fry the bacon until almost crisp.
- Scoop it out and set aside (so it won't burn).
- Fry the meat in the bacon fat until browned on all sides you may have to do this in batches.
- Scoop out the meat and add to the bacon.
- Saute the onions (and garlic if you're using it) in the bacon.
- (Those who really get concerned can drain off some of the fat, but it won't be true chili at that point.)
- When it's soft, throw in the cumin, chile powder, and paprika and cook briefly about 2 minutes
- Return the meat, cover with water (try not to use chlorinated water, if you have chlorinated water leave a large container on the counter overnight for the chlorine to evaporate and bring it to a boil.
- Taste and add salt, then cover and set it to simmer for a 2 hours.
- Thicken as needed with cornmeal or stale tortillas.
- Serve with sour cream or cottage cheese, diced onions and, of course,
- Beer and bread.
- Like all good chilis this is best made a day in advance and reheated
