ingredients

1 lb ground beef
¹⁄₂ onion, diced
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
2 ¹⁄₂ tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon sugar
¹⁄₂ teaspoon cumin
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup beef broth
3 tablespoons cornmeal
¹⁄₂ tablespoon salt
vegetable oil

directions

Put a couple tablespoons of vegetable oil in medium sauce pan. On medium-high heat, saute onion until translucent, then add garlic. Stir for about a minute, then add ground beef. As beef begins to brown, use a potato masher to grind up the beef into small bits.
Once brown, add in the rest of the ingredients (if your beef produced a lot of grease, you may want to strain some of that out first before adding the rest of the ingredients).
Give it all a good stir to combine then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. Do a taste test at this point to see if it has enough salt. If want, you can transfer the chili over to a Crock Pot and put it on the keep warm setting.
Cook's Note: This chili is super-duper wonderful on tater tots and french fries. You gotta try it if you have some leftover chili. Throw some cheddar cheese on top and you gotta whole new meal!
