What it is
This is a thick, savory chili base made with seasoned ground beef and a rich tomato sauce. It forms the foundation for a variety of chili dishes.

To prepare, simply heat the chili base in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it is thoroughly heated through. For a more complex flavor, you can simmer it with additional ingredients such as diced onions, bell peppers, or your favorite chili spices.

This base is also excellent for incorporating into other dishes, like chili mac or chili cheese fries, by simply adding it to your prepared components.
