Easy as fallin' off a horse

Chili in 3 Steps

  1. Brown Your Meat

    Beef, turkey, chicken — or skip it and go full veggie. Your pot, your rules.

  2. Stir in the Mixin's

    Add the seasoning and masa packets from your bag along with your fixin's. Add as much heat as you can handle.

  3. Simmer 30 Minutes

    Let it bubble, give it a stir, then holler “Come and get it!”

Meet Ol' Hired Hand

Before there was a Six Gun Chili Mixin's, there was Ol' Hired Hand — the cowboy everybody counted on to keep the coffee hot and the chili pot full out on the cattle trail.

His recipe rode from campfires to kitchens across Texas. In 1978 it became a complete dry mix with everything you need, right down to the masa flour — and it went on to be honored by the U.S. Senate as “An American Original.”
