    It’s only too watery if you prefer it thicker

    If it tastes too watery, add a teaspoon or two of tomato paste and mix

    Continue adding until you get a good texture

    It looks great! If you’d like it a little thicker, add some masa. Delish!

    I really appreciate all the handy tips and advice rediters you guys are golden .

    Looks like the consistency my family likes it.
    If you like thicker I prefer using instant mashed potatoes to thicken stuff, doesn’t break down like flour or cornstarch can do over time

    It looks amazing, cool you cooked it in Crock Pot, my go to Pot for cooking chilli.

    Looks perfect to me! Some crackers, Fritos or cornbread when served would help absorb liquid if it’s too thin for your tastes.

    I forgot to put cumin in it is that a necessary herb ? To put in chilli ?

    Looks great! If you prefer it thicker, a lot of chili recipes call for masa harina or corn flour as a thickening agent. It does alter the flavor, but I personally like it a lot.

    Looks perfect- stir it well, there is always extra liquid on top

    Thank you 🙏🏻 good to know that I’m on the right track taste pretty good I’ll let it sit over night supposedly it’s taste better after sitting over night ?

    I think that is perfectly acceptable. Mine always seems to thicken up after a day in the fridge

    I make mine even thinner. Wife loves it that way and so do I. Yours looks perfectly delicious and if you like it then that’s all that matters.

    I like my chili like my women, thick and spicy.

    I prefer mine *slightly* thicker but this looks pretty fucking good!

    Masa flour is delicious in chili, and will thicken it.

    Perfect texture. You can always thicken it if you want.
