Why do you need rice (or Fritos)? Shouldn’t the chili speak for itself? Maybe it’s a Midwest thing, but we don’t do rice (or especially Fritos) around here.
The best known chili in the Midwest is made with spaghetti so ummm...no.
Chili recipe I use:
1-2 onions depending on size diced 1 sweet bell pepper (red, yellow or orange) diced 1-3 carrots depending on size diced 2-3 lbs. ground beef (80/20 because anything less would be uncivilized) 2-3 tbsp ground cumin 1 32 oz. can diced tomatoes 1 jalapeño (take out the seeds and ribs if you are not into spicy) diced 2-3 chipotle peppers (I use chipotle in adobo sauce which you can get in a can at the grocery store - I also throw in some of the sauce for a little extra flavor) (also, same deal with the seeds since chipotle peppers are just smoked jalapeños) diced Chili powder (I eyeball it but a fair amount) A few dashes of cayenne pepper 1 15 oz. can red beans 1 15 oz. can black beans 1 15 oz. can cannelini beans
Dice onions, peppers and carrots and sauté/ sweat out in large pot. Season with salt and black pepper. After approximately 7-10 mins, add cumin and cook for 1 minute. Put in and brown all of the ground beef. Once browned, add jalapeño, chipotle peppers, chili powder, cayenne pepper, diced tomatoes, all of the beans, and a 15 oz. can of water and season with salt and black pepper. After it has reduced a little from the water, simmer on low for as long as you can (an hour, maybe 2?). Enjoy!
I will sometimes include celery as a vegetable to sweat out in the beginning of the process but it most depends on what I have around. I got this recipe initially off Food Network but over the years I made it so many times nearly everything is eyeballed and I am sure I am nowhere near that initial recipe.

Also want to carefully note that depending on your usage of the peppers and the amount of adobo sauce you use this recipe varies from barely medium to blow your face off.

What’s a Frito ?
Fried corn chips. Like somebody else said, in Texas and other parts of the Southern US you cover these with chili and cheese to make Frito Pie. My local BBQ place makes one with chili and chopped beef that is ridiculous.

They look tasty. Thanks. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them before.
