Real Texas Chili

Ingredients

• 3 pounds boneless beef chuck roast - cut into 1 inch cubes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 2 (14 ounce) cans beef broth, divided
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

1 Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Saute the beef cubes in the oil for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and stir in the garlic.
2 In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin and flour. Sprinkle over the meat and stir until evenly coated. Crumble the oregano over the meat and pour in 1 1/2 cans of the broth.
3 Add the salt and ground black pepper, stir together well, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and let simmer, partially covered for about 30 minutes, or until meat is falling apart. Cool, cover and refrigerate to allow the flavors to blend.
