For a deeper flavor, try browning the ground beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Smoked paprika adds a wonderful smoky element, but regular paprika works well too. If you prefer a sweeter chili, add a tablespoon of brown sugar or molasses along with the other spices. This chili sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will meld and deepen even more over time. For a spicier kick, add a finely chopped jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce to the mixture. Consider adding 1 tablespoon of cider vinegar for brightness
