WHAT MEATS TO USE IN THIS CHILI

For this chunky beef chili I used a combination of chopped beef and ground beef.  For my chopped meat, I like to use beef sirloin. Other suggestions include beef stew meat or cut up roast like chuck roast or rump roast. Don't eat red meat? Make this a chunky chicken chili by simply using cut up boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs &  ground chicken. You can easily make this recipe work for you.

"Chunky" Chili

I purposely cut the food into into larger chunks than I normally would for this recipe. Of course you can make them any size; try to cut the meat & vegetables into the same size chunks so they cook evenly.

Low-Carb/Keto Chili

When I updated this recipe with electric pressure cooker instructions (Instant Pot), I also updated the ingredients. I added more beef but the main update is that I removed the potatoes. I did this for a number of reasons. Mainly because I wanted this chili to be low-carb/keto friendly but also because I wanted this to be a more traditional chili. Chili usually doesn't include potatoes or sweet potatoes. Having said that, if you want to make the original version, add in 1 pound of chopped potatoes to chili.  It will look like this when it's done cooking:

Garnish Chunky Beef Chili

Garnish  this chunky beef chili with your favorite toppings. I kept things simple and only used fresh cilantro and avocado. Green onions, sliced jalapeños, and of course cheese (depending on your dietary restrictions) are other topping suggestions. Keep in mind that cheese is suitable for low-carb/keto but not for paleo/whole30.

Storing & Freezing Chunky Beef Chili

To store the chili, let it cool before packing it away. You can then store the chunky beef chili in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or the freezer for 4-6 months.
