Texas Chili by Meat Church - Westlake Ace Hardware

Ingredients

• 2 lbs of ground meat (Venison is also great, Matt’s fav)

• 6 T Meat Church Texas Chili Seasoning. This is a great heat level, but back it down to 4-5 T for Mild.
• Add 1-2 T more for even spicier or add 2 T cayenne pepper.
• Shredded Cheese
• Fresh Jalapeños
• Chopped White Onions
• Large Slow Cooker or Dutch oven. Matt makes his in a Lodge 7 qt dutch oven.
