Old man winter took his sweet time arriving at my southern home, but when he finally made it, he arrived in style. Baby, it’s cold outside and that means it’s time to make a big batch of my Chili Chili Bang Bang! It has a nice kick for those of us who like it hot, but it’s not over-the-top spicy. It’s just right!

Chili Chili Bang Bang

To ensure my Chili Chili Bang Bang will taste amazing, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. I always begin with Hunt’s vine ripened tomatoes and BUSH’S slow-simmered chili beans. For this recipe, I use two cans of each.

How to Make Chili Chili Bang Bang

Stir in 2 tablespoons grape jelly and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for  30 minutes. The grape jelly adds a little bit of sweetness and balances out the acidity.

Making Chili Chili Bang Bang

Helpful Hint: If you had rather use a slow cooker, mix all the ingredients together, transfer to a slow cooker and cook on slow for 4 hours. This is the method I use when I’m making my Chili Chili Bang Bang for gameday.

Top with your favorite chili toppings before serving. I like to top my chili with shredded cheese and cherry peppers. You can also use tortilla chips, sour cream, avocado, limes. Hey, it’s your bowl of chili! Top it any way you like.
