    how do you make chili more flavorful?

    Using fresh spices is the first step to a flavorful chili. Adding in layers of other flavors like sautéed onion, roasted poblanos, a dash of chocolate, or even a small shot of coffee can also help add more flavor to your chili.

    How much should I use?

    There's a bit of personal preference involved here. I recommend you start at 2 Tablespoons per pound of meat.

    However, I personally prefer a very heavily seasoning chili, and use about ¼ cup per 1 pound of meat.
