2 pounds grass-fed ground beef
1/2 - 1 pound chicken livers*
2-3 large onions, peeled and chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbs coconut oil or tallow
8 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped or 25 oz. peeled diced tomatoes
1 cup bone broth or water
4 tbs chili powder
1 tbs cumin
1 tsp coriander
2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tbsp unrefined sea salt (you'll probably want to add more, but if you happen to use stewed tomatoes or broth that has salt added this is a good place to start)
2 lemons or 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups dried black beans, optional
Beef liver can be substituted but it will need to be finely minced before it is sauteed with the onions/garlic. Also, I recommend using no more than 1/2 pound as beef liver has a very strong taste.

Steps:

Instructions for the night before: Trim chicken livers (To do this remove any white, stringy portions with your fingers or a knife) Place livers in a medium bowl and cover with water Squeeze in the juice of 2 lemons or 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar and place in fridge for at least 8-12 hours. This will neutralize some of the strong flavor of the liver Place beans in a bowl and cover liberally with water - they will expand to more than double their current size. Add 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar and allow to soak overnight. The next day: To make the beans: Rinse beans and place in a pot. Cover with a few inches of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer until tender. To make the chili: Warm oil/tallow over medium heat. Add onions, garlic and liver, mincing liver as finely as possible while you sautee. When the onions are soft and the liver resembles a coarse paste(about 10 minutes), add ground beef and saute until brown. Once the ground beef is browned, add the tomatoes and spices. If needed, pour in enough water/broth so that the meat is fully submerged. Bring chili to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for an hour. Enjoy!
