Kevin’s Texas Red Homestyle Chili
This hearty chili recipe might be called "Texas Chili", but don't worry, it's still got plenty of beans. In fact, Kevin Foley's 2023 World Championship Chili Cook-off® Homestyle Category winning chili has not just one or two, but three different types of Bush’s® Beans. With Kidney Beans, Pinto Beans and Black Beans, mixed with chopped tri-tip beef tenderloin, this recipe is enough to satisfy even the biggest of chili appetites.
