Description
The word ‘chili’ conjures up a concoction of ground beef and beans. If you take the basic formula but substitute leftover brisket, you get a hybrid chili that is the best of both worlds. It has the toothsome meatiness of Texas Chili and the full meal appeal of the ground beef and beans.
