*Recipe Updated For Better Pictures*
Darn good Chili is our staple chili recipe.
This recipe reminds me of the Chili served at a little restaurant called Shirleys in Beaverton, OR when I was a young girl. I can't promise it tastes anything like their chili as it's been years since I've had it, but for whatever reason it reminds me of a memory of having a late lunch with my Granny and Grandad along with my cousins Melissa and Nathan.
I was very young I can't imagine older than six, and they taught me how to hang a spoon from my nose! I thought it was the coolest trick all the way through elementary school and had been in trouble on many nights for practicing at the dinner table.
I don't know why the chili sticks out in my head, but I remember how amazing it was with onions and cheese in a small cup.
We very rarely ate out and I am sure this contributes to the specialness of this memory.
This recipe was a repost from a few years back, but since it's my all time favorite chili recipe I felt it long overdue for an updated picture.
