Shredded Beef Chili Con Carne
Recipe video above. My signature Chili recipe, made with pulled beef! The sauce has richer, more complex flavours that you can never achieve using ground / mince beef like traditional Chilli Con Carne. If you're out of time, skip browning the beef - then it's a 5 minute prep job, "set and forget". Freezes exceptionally well.
