Notes

🌡️ The longer you simmer the chili, the deeper and more complex the flavors will become – aim for at least 1 hour if time permits
🌶️ Adjust the heat level by adding or omitting the jalapeño and hot sauce to suit your taste preferences
❄️ This chili freezes beautifully – make a double batch and store portions for quick future meals
