It's a toss-up between which is the national food of Texas, BBQ or chili. In any case, beans belong on the side, not in the chili. And I think Libby_James is right, how can it be called chili and not have cumino? I think this is a tasty recipe regardless, but it strikes me as more of a guisada than chili. Po-tae-to, po-tah-to... it will be good.

I added a few teaspoons of sugar to get rid of the (bitter)tomato-y flavor. This helped tremendously. The next day, this basic chili was quite excellent. I'll keep this on in my files!

Cumin is one of chili powder's main ingredients. If you want more just add it.
