This video shows you the 2-time National Champion Red Chili recipe. This recipe was created by Margaret Nadeau and won the CASI Terilingua International Chili championship in 2005 & 2009.
She calls it Sahara Chili
To make:
STEP 1:
2 lbs. Course ground beef (chili grand)
1 TBS Cooking oil
1 TBS Granulated onion
Add ingredients together and lightly brown meat
STEP 2
Add:
1 can (8oz) Tomato Sauce
1can Beef Broth – I used 15oz
Cook for 30 minutes
STEP 3
Add:
1 TBS Light Chili Powder
2 TBS Dark Chili Powder
1 tsp Garlic powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 TBS Cumin
1/2 tsp Cayenne
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
1 tsp Chicken Granules or 1 cube
Cook for 1 hour
Step 4:
Add:
1 TBS Light Chili Powder
1 TBS Dark Chili Powder
1 tsp Paprika
1/2 TBS Cumin
Add water if needed – I didn’t – Perhaps using 8 oz of beef instead and using water at the end here will cut not on the saltiness.
Leave covered and simmer for 30 minutes.

– Hi, Jason Ganahl, GQue BBQ. It’s snowing outside, but that’s O.K. because I’ve got something that’s going to warm you up. Margaret Nadeau’s Red Sahara Chili recipe. She won the national championship in 2005, and then she went ahead and won it again in 2009. Both times beating entries from over 500 qualifying contests.
If you’re into red chili, this is not something that you’re not going to want to miss. – I’ve been watching this chili cook all afternoon, and now I can finally taste it. Excellent red chili. It’s got great depth, lots of flavors going on, which is really surprising because we didn’t put a whole lot of ingredients inside of it, but that’s what happens when you allow
Something to cook for several hours. Everything comes together really nicely and balances itself out. I do think it’s a little bit too salty for my personal preference; however, it’s still better than 90 percent of the red chilies I’ve ever had, and I use to be a chili judge
When I lived in Saint Louis a long time ago. Excellent, excellent chili. This chili, along with all the other national championship chilies… The recipes are posted on the C-A-S-I website. I’m going to put that link down below. If you like what I’m doing here, please give me a thumbs up.

I made a BEER Cheese from Scratch and put it on a Wagyu Burger – watch it now – https://youtu.be/fajQoXegMlY
Just made this chilli you are absolutely right it's a bit too salty but I will make it again and not add the ½ tsp of salt and see if that fixes it
Thanks for the recipe other than being too salty it was great 👍
Do people not use beans in their Chile in these competitions? It looks like it’s just meat and spices
Real chili has beans. Lol
What is the purpose for all the simmering time? Adds up to 2 hours….
I’m in a club called Tech Noir. It’s on Pico.
I know it. Stay there. Have some chili. We’ll send a car right over.
where's the beans?
This is my go-to recipe for chili now. Holy cow, it's good. My mom likes it, but it's a little too spicy for her. What adjustments would you make that would cut down on spiciness but still retain good flavor?
What’s with the music? It makes it hard to watch
Jason, you got me cooking today!!!! I am hungry!!!!!!😄😄😄
Hey, where can I get that music track you are playing? Name, etc?
I think it was way too salty for my family but would make it again minus the extra salt to see if it makes a difference in the saltiness from all the other seasoning.
For all I know, this is a great chili recipe… but if you're not saying what you're putting in there I have no way of knowing The Recipe … I'm standing at my stove with my back to my computer sorry I have to watch this I'll find somebody else it's chili …
what an insult that is to Chili Colorado adding tomato sauce.
Came here for chili points to make it better!!
Everything is better in slow motion lol
Whats the difference between Light Chili Powder and Dark Chili Powder? Is it a blend (specific) or is it a different chili used?
I have been making this for several years. It is quite spicy, so I have to make separate chili for wife. I love it, and making today.
Is it spicy? Like a 10 or 15 on the scale of hot I like hot chili
I just started making this and can not figure out how on earth this would turn out with the amount of liquid it calls for. After the hour cooking all of my liquid would have been gone. I ended up adding more tomato sauce and kidney beans.
If we cook it on Friday and then warm and serve on Saturday, do you think it will hold up? It’s a school competition, so nothing too big, but we still want it to hold up!
Can I add beans to it? And if so when can I put beans in? After the first 30 minutes or before the last 30 minutes so I don't burn them?
This recipe was way to salty.
If it’s a bit salty, then it isn’t the best chili; it’s the worst chili.
We called this all my life Po chili. No 💰 chili. Served over jiffy cornbread.😂 We been eating red 🌶️. We eat it now because we like it. Funny AF.
FYI chicken and sausage gumbo is called Pobo…no seafood.
Just won a chili cook off with this recipe 🌶️ 🏆🥇
Hard to imagine a chili winning without any beans in it. This is just flavored beef.
Lemon bear blanc
Hey man, why don't you dump or strain off the grease? I had the most flavorful chili in a cookoff yesterday and was told by 2 of the judges that the oils floating on top took me out of any final judging. They said if that was gone I would have taken at least 2nd place..
I strained 75% of the fats too
I like this variation… Although.. I have to have finely chopped onions..I add them in three parts to no lose flavor. Soy sauce substitute salt…is how I prefer and last..brown sugar a small fist full…add on smoked Chipotle from Winco.. No regrets!!!!
Second time making this chilli today. I didn’t add the salt the first time and it came out perfect, can’t wait to make it again!
Can I do 1 lbs of ground beef and 1 lbs of chorizo???
Had to double the powders! Add sugar and brown sugar..came out far better
I’ve been making this chili for years now. The music in this video is still cringe. Great chili though.
How much Molly did you add?
