Mark's Famous Chili

Mark loves chili. Actually, he loves anything ‘hearty’ but chili is one of his favorites. It pairs perfectly with cold days and cozy nights staying in. It is definitely a little on the heavier side so you may want to enjoy a fresh salad for lunch the day you plan on making this!
