Nourishing Ancestral Beef Chili
February 15, 2026 • 0 comments
Elevate your comfort food with this nutrient-dense, bean-free chili. This recipe features our Ancestral Beef Blend. A powerful combination of grass-fed beef with added organs. If you’ve been curious about adding organs to your diet but are worried about the flavor, this is the perfect "entry-level" recipe. The organ blend adds a deep, savory richness that perfectly complements the seasonings without any off-putting or "iron-like" taste. You won't even know they're there!
By swapping traditional beans for tender sliced carrots, we’ve created a hearty, satisfying texture that pairs beautifully with our slow-simmered Bone Broth. It’s a clean, ancestral-style meal that delivers maximum nourishment in every delicious bite.

Ingredients
- (1 lb) Ancestral Blend Ground Beef
- (2 cups) 1 quart - Chicken Bone Broth (Glass)
- (1 tbsp) 1 pint - A2/A2 Ghee (Glass)
- (2 medium, sliced into rounds) Carrots (1lb)
- (1 medium, chopped) Green Bell Pepper
- (1 small, chopped) Yellow Onions (2lb)
- (2-3, pressed) Garlic Bulbs (8oz)
- (23 ounces (fire-roasted recommended)) Diced Tomatoes
- (3 tbsp) Chili Powder
- (1 tbsp) Cumin
- (1.5 tsp, dried) Oregano
- (1 tsp) Fine Pink Himalayan Salt, 1lb
- (1/4 tsp) Black Pepper
- (1/4 tsp (optional)) Cayenne Pepper
- (shredded, for topping) 8oz A2/A2 Mozzarella Pressed Cheese
- (a dollop for garnish) 1 pint - Raw A2/A2 Sour Cream (Glass)
- (fresh, for garnish) Cilantro
Directions
Instructions
- Heat 2 tsp of Ghee in a large pan over medium heat. Add the sliced carrots and sauté for 2–3 minutes until they begin to soften and slightly brown.
- Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the pan. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent and the peppers are tender.
- Stir in the pressed garlic and cook for just 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
- Add the Ancestral Beef Blend to the pan. Use a spatula to break the meat apart and cook until it is browned and no longer pink inside.
- Stir in all of your pre-measured seasonings (chili powder, cumin, cayenne, oregano, salt, and pepper). Mix well to ensure the beef and veggies are thoroughly coated in the spices.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes and 2 cups of Bone Broth. Bring the mixture to a light boil, then reduce the heat.
- Let the chili simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes. This allows the liquid to reduce and the flavors to deepen and thicken.
- Ladle into bowls and top with a dollop of our raw sour cream, a generous sprinkle of A2/A2 cheese, chopped cilantro, and a few extra onions.
Notes
• For the Kids: If serving children or those sensitive to heat, skip the cayenne pepper and reduce the chili powder by half.
• Serving Suggestions: Serve with your favorite tortilla chips, crackers, or a slice of sourdough bread.
• Spice Note: The cayenne is optional but highly recommended if you enjoy a little extra "kick" in your bowl!
