Need a big bowl of comfort, well children you will find it with "Down Home Double Bean Chili" I can remember when I was a child that mom would fix chili from time to time cause my dad was kinda picky in his food choices, but he would always eat chili. One of his favorite chili recipes was made with deer meat. Dad and my uncles would all go hunting and we knew what the first dish was gonna be, Deer Chili !!!! Don't fret there ain't no deer in this recipe, just beef. Hope Y'all enjoy it. Check out the Grilled Pimento Cheese Corn Waffle recipe to serve with it.
