Hambone Chili

Note that's just for the bean portion. Although it obviously carries over into the chili itself. The hambone/rind/etc gives a thicker consistency to the beans as well, which makes for a thicker chili. I like to cook the beans and the meat sauce separately, then combine and let blend together their individual qualities/flavors/etc. The amount of spice in the meat is what controls the heat.
