Directions
-
In a heavy 3-quart saucepan, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat.
-
Add the beef chuck cubes, dark chili powder, and granulated garlic; brown the meat on all sides, stirring occasionally.
-
While the beef browns, combine 8 oz tomato sauce, 14 oz beef broth, 1 tsp chicken bouillon, 1 tsp jalapeño powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp red pepper, 1 tsp white pepper, and 24 oz spring water in a separate bowl.
-
Pour the liquid mixture into the saucepan with the beef.
-
Add 5 tbsp of medium and dark chili powders, 1 tbsp paprika, 1 packet Sazon seasoning, 1 tsp onion pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder to the pot.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer.
-
Float 2 whole serrano peppers on top of the chili; simmer uncovered for 1.5 hours, removing the peppers before they disintegrate.
-
Stir in 2 tsp cumin and 1/8 tsp salt.
-
Continue to simmer for another 20 minutes, adding small amounts of water or beef broth if the chili becomes too thick.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or spices as desired.
-
Simmer for a final 10 minutes to meld flavors.

Serve hot; yields about 6 cups.
