I LOVE Richard Arlen and mainly because I made his Chili Con Carne last night and it was quite honestly the most delicious Chili I have ever eaten outside of Texas!

I could have been on a cheesy commercial doing the bit before the “pack shot” where there is a close up of a “oh my goodness this is absolutely delicious” look. It was a big surprise as there are so few ingredients for such a splendid taste. I think the secret is the Worcestershire Sauce and flour combo added near the end. Bravo Richard.
