Sautee 1/4 of the garlic and onions until translucent. Add 1/4 of the meat, chili powder and brown. Salt the meat while cooking. Put into your chili pot. Cast iron is best. Repeat until all the meat is done. Put the rest of the ingredients in your chili pot and simmer for an hour. As in any recipe, the amount of ingredients is variable. Add more of anything you want, especially chilies.
