5tablespoonsChili powder
1tablespoonFlour

Directions

Brown meat, onion & garlic together. Add all other ingredients & simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Add additional tomato juice or water if you prefer a 'soupier' bowl of chili. For those who like chili con carne con frijoles, add two 15-oz cans pinto or kidney beans along with the juice from the beans. Do not doulbe chocolate if you double the recipe. Your guests will enjoy this chili more if you don't tell them about the chocolate until after their second helping.
