I make all my chilli
with chopped silverside beef. I also cook in olive oil but you have to add some veg oil to stop it burning.
I'm not saying 'look at me I spit on your mince' because I grew up on mince and potatoes and chilli mince.
Lets be fair if I have to use mince for anything other than choice these days I've become a failure.
It's all about the taste so just buy the best mince you can afford from a butcher and don't buy stuff in a bag from Tesco.
Also I don't use capsicum peppers in my chilli ( the big ones ) as they sweeten it too much and you should get enough sugars from browning the meat and deglazing the pan.

Ooooh get you ;)
Thats just how I make my chilli. I prefer cooking mexican, with chicken, but cant really afford that any more.
I like the bit of sweetness as I always make my chillis fucking hot.

If I'm expert at anything
then it is cooking.
I live for cooking.

I don't often agree with you Pasanonic...
but I did just then.
Lets be fair, if you're using meat from a supermarket, you're doing your cooking any justice. A proper Butchers is best.

I've lived on a budget in the past
and on a quite meagre one too. The truth is your local butcher will still manage to give you a better quality product than a supermarket ever will and considering he'll be glad of the custom you might be surprised at what you can actually get.
He'll have loads of cuts that are no longer fashionable and will end up as sausage so if you go in, say you don't have a pot to piss in but would like to feed your kids some form of protein I bet you'll get the best meat you've had in years if not normally a butcher shopper.
'you' is generic of course.
