What is your personal chili recipe? Do you go ultra traditional, do you have your own crazy variations?

I go with the following (pic is unrelated, just random)

>fry half a sweet onion with sunflower oil
>add 2 cloves garlic when light brown
>add 300g ground beef when onions are dark brown, add some extra virgin olive oil
>fry up and drain all liquid
>add 70g tomato puree, 300g tomato sauce, 1tbsp ground cumin, 1tbsp freshly ground chili, 1/2 tsp black pepper powder, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, some salt
>stir and fry for about a minute while preparing beef broth
>add beef broth and simmer, adding more broth every 10 minutes for an hour
>add masa harina to the remaining broth until it's a wet paste and add
>add 350g kidney beans
>simmer 10 mins and serve

I love it with some grated cheddar personally. Fresh guacamole on the side is nice occasionally, but usually when I have guests. God this food is so fucking nice.
