French

Heat a large sauce pan (preferably cast iron) over med-high heat. Add bacon and cook until crisp. Add ground beef, onions and garlic cook until beef is nearly cooked through and browned, stirring occasionally.

Add BBQ sauce, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika , brown sugar, fresh cracked pepper and salt. Stir to combine, bring to a simmer, then lower heat to keep at a gentle simmer. Cook for about 20-30 minutes. If the chili is too thick add about 1/4 cup of water (flavors will develop more with the longer cooking time but isn&#039;t a requirement).

Serve the chili warm with fries &amp; other favorite additions. Or use chili as a base or alongside - tortilla chips, crusty bread, in a quesadilla, over a sausage dog or burger, as a pizza sauce, with pasta.
