For an even richer flavor, consider browning the ground beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Adjust the amount of chili powder and hot sauce to suit your spice preference. Experiment with different types of beans or add other vegetables like corn or diced tomatoes for a unique twist. Serve with a variety of toppings such as shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, avocado, and tortilla chips for a customizable experience. The chili tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have had time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
