For an even deeper flavor, consider browning the ground beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot. A pinch of smoked paprika can add a wonderful smoky dimension to the chili. Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder and green chile peppers to control the level of spiciness. This chili is even better the next day, as the flavors continue to develop overnight.
