A Keto Beef Chilli
It’s beef week on Headbanger’s Kitchen and it’s Keto recipe time. I’ve cooked up a delicious Keto Chilli Con Carne using ground beef (of course). It’s one of my favourites and with a dollop of sour cream and some avacado, it’s like food porn. So enjoy the recipe. I also tried a new format where I don’t speak during the recipe. Let me know if you like this better than my usual jibber jabber.

How much beef broth would you use if not using a cube?
Thanks,

May 18, 2018 at 5:19 amHi Sahil, I want to try out this recipe soon. What is a good substitute for bacon in this recipe?
Sahil Makhija
May 29, 2018 at 12:27 pmSkip it completely, start the cooking with oil/fat of your choice.

June 16, 2018 at 10:48 amShould the bacon be cured or uncured? or is it ok either way?
Sahil Makhija
June 16, 2018 at 12:10 pmAny bacon will do.

June 19, 2018 at 3:21 amSweet. Thank you so much.
Btw. Love your channel. The recipes are awesome.
I’ve had trouble managing my macros until I started following your channel and website.
You’ve made life super easy for beginners on keto. Thank you so much for that.

October 29, 2018 at 1:58 pmVery good chili. I love the addition of bacon and mushrooms. I increased the seasoning to our taste. the only change I’d make next time is to remove a bit of the fat after frying the bacon (I know keto is high fat but I prefer a bit less in my chili, just personal preference.) i will definitely make again.

December 14, 2018 at 2:16 pmIs there anything you would suggest to make this vegetarian/vegan?
Recently found you; thanks for everything!

December 15, 2018 at 2:43 amWell replace the bacon fat with olive oil. Coconut cream for regular cream (if I used any). I guess some nut cheese could be used. Now for the protein I guess some kind of vegan replacement should work? Or maybe Soya/tofu blitzed up to replace ground meat? Maybe something like this?

January 4, 2019 at 7:13 pmTurned out great. I used passata instead of puree. And I tweaked it by browning the meat on a cast iron skillet and then deglacing it with half the water scraping it and pouring it into the pot after dissolving the cubes in there. I also added a tiny bit of dark chocolate right at the end for added richness though that’s not recommended probably ?
Made homemade guac as a side. Great stuff

March 11, 2019 at 5:13 pmFantastic recipe. Made it six times so far. The only problem is I can’t stop eating it, it’s so good. The last two time, I added a bit of cocoa powder, excellent.
We love your videos, keep them coming.

November 22, 2020 at 2:35 pmHi. Where do you find beef cubes in India? If not, what is a good substitute?
Sahil Makhija
November 23, 2020 at 8:30 amYou can find them in lots of these general stores where they sell imported products. If not you can use a chicken stock cube instead or make your own chicken/beef/mutton stock by boiling soup bones.
