All American Chili Recipes with Grass-Fed Ground Beef

When you choose premium grass-fed ground beef, you are reminded of the flavors that all beef used to have when you were growing up.  It’s that rich and meaty authentic beef flavor that brings your favorite recipes to live, and so much more enjoyable.

What is more American than a hot pot of chili?  You can eat it with some crusty bread and repurpose it for a number of delicious meals; as a topping for your favorite tortilla chips, or on top of a grilled burger with melted cheddar.   And one of the great things about using fresh Florida Raised grass-fed ground beef, is that it can be frozen after you prepare your chili.  That’s right! Our Fresh from Florida ground beef is never frozen, and that’s why it’s only available to residents of Florida.

Because we save the best for home. 

We went looking for some uncommon recipes for the classic American favorite, to help you up-your-game in the family chili department.  Try out some of the suggestions we found from amazing food bloggers, and if you enjoyed one of the recipes, share our blog post and leave a comment.    We’d love to know how you put your personal spin on great meals, that start with Florida Raised grass-fed beef.

Maple Bourbon Chili (For Grown-Up’s)

Maple and bourbon?  We know what you are thinking… “now that’s the kind of chili my friends would appreciate”.  The traditional red kidney beans and diced tomatoes, onion and ground beef are used for this delicious recipe, along with some extra kick thanks to cayenne pepper.  But what elevates this chili recipe is the use of real maple syrup and ¼ cup of quality bourbon. 

Chili is cowboy food, and we think it would be hard to find any grown-up that wouldn’t want to try this unique take on the classic beef chili.  We’re fans of food blogger Amanda Finks, so head over to “The Wholesome Dish” to check out this amazing recipe and try it at home, with Florida Raised grass-fed ground beef.

Smoky Bacon and Beef Chili

If you enjoy bacon cheeseburgers, you already know that bacon and beef are a match made in culinary heaven.   So while most chili recipes do not contain the salty notes of cooked bacon, you are going to love how the two flavors come together in this great version from MyRecipes.com

Fire roasted tomatoes pack more flavor punch, while the spicy smoked paprika seasoning gives it a mouth-watering savory heat.   And according to the website, this chili only gets better when it marinates over-night, which means you can freeze portions and enjoy it for another meal.
