🥩 Carnivore Chili Recipe

✅ 100% Animal-Based | 🕒 Ready in ~30-40 min | 🍲 Serves 3–4

🧾 Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 or fattier preferred)

• 1/2 lb chuck roast or stew beef, cubed (optional, for texture)

• 4 strips bacon, chopped

• 1/2 cup bone broth (or water)

• 1 tsp salt (or to taste)

• 1/2 tsp black pepper (optional — for liberal carnivores)

• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)

• Optional add-ins:

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tbsp butter or beef tallow

  • Shredded cheese for topping (if tolerated)

🔥 Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon

   • In a large pot or skillet, cook chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside.

2. Brown the Beef

   • In the same pot, add ground beef and cubed stew meat (if using). Brown well, breaking up the ground beef.

3. Add Broth & Simmer

   • Pour in bone broth, season with salt and optional spices.

   • Reduce heat and simmer for 20–30 minutes, uncovered, until it thickens.

4. Add Bacon Back In

   • Stir in cooked bacon pieces at the end. Optionally, mix in a pat of butter or sprinkle cheese on top.

5. Serve Hot

   • Serve in a bowl as-is, or pair with pork rinds or a fried egg on top for extra protein.

💬 Q&A: Carnivore Chili Edition

Q: Can I use only ground beef?
A: Yes! It’s budget-friendly and still delicious. The stew beef just adds texture.

Q: What if I don’t have bone broth?
A: Use water, or mix in a bit of beef fat for flavor.

Q: Can I meal prep this?
A: Definitely. It reheats well and can be frozen for up to 2 months.

Q: Is cheese allowed on carnivore?
A: Strict carnivore = no. Liberal carnivore or keto-carnivore = yes, if you tolerate dairy.

Q: No tomatoes??
A: Nope — this version is zero carb, so no tomato sauce, no beans, no onions, etc.
