A zero-carb, meat-based chili made with ground beef, steak, bone broth, and optional spices. Cozy, rich, and perfect for carnivore or keto lifestyles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)

  • 1 lb chuck roast or stew meat, cubed

  • 2 tbsp beef tallow or ghee

  • 34 cups beef bone broth

  • 2 oz beef liver, finely minced (optional)

  • Salt, to taste

  • Optional spices: ½ tsp smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, black pepper

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat tallow over medium-high heat. Brown the ground beef for 7–8 minutes.

  • Add the cubed beef and sear on all sides until browned.

  • Stir in minced liver (if using) and cook 2–3 minutes more.

  • Pour in bone broth to cover the meat. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer, cover, and cook 1–1.5 hours.

  • Add salt and optional spices. Stir and simmer uncovered to thicken.

  • Serve warm, with egg yolks or cheese if desired.

Notes

  • For strict carnivore, omit all spices and stick to meat and salt.

  • Slow cooker and Instant Pot adaptations work well.

  • Chili freezes great for meal prep.
