Firehouse Chili Gluten Free is a savory packed with flavor chili that will warm up any winter day!
There is nothing like a forecast for snow to make me want some wonderful Firehouse Chili!
My mom did not cook much in my childhood, but when she did….tt was so good (and such a treat!).
This chili is one she remembered her mother and father making, so it was definitely one she had to make for my brother and me.
It is so delicious and nothing warmed us up better than this chili after we had been out in the snow.
Coming inside to the wonderful aroma of this Firehouse Chili bubbling on the stove, was pure heaven.
And THEN when we tasted it? Let’s just say one bowl was never enough!
If you are wanting an easy to prepare dish to heat up a cold, frigid winter day this is it.
The recipe makes enough to serve a large crowd or have leftovers.
My mom was the oldest of six children, so her parents joked they needed to make enough to feed a firehouse.
Snow in the forecast or it’s been frigid for the last few days?
Here’s what you need to make to warm up every one!
Enjoy!
- 4 pounds ground meat (I used 2 pounds each of beef and turkey)
- 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) gf beef broth
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 1 medium green pepper, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cans (28 ounces each) stewed tomatoes, cut up
- 3 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon parsley
- 4 cans (16 ounces each) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 tablespoon tarragon
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- In a Dutch oven, in olive oil cook onions and green peppers until slightly tender. Add meat and cook over medium heat until meat is no longer pink, drain. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1-1/2 hours or until flavors are blended.
I love this chili.
Great for cold days like today
Gotta try this!
