After a successful hunt, you deserve a dish as unforgettable as your time in the field. That’s why I’m sharing my go-to recipe for venison chili — a hunter’s feast that celebrates the natural taste of wild game.
This isn’t your average chili recipe. We’re taking a stand against beans and veggies, because, let’s face it — we’re here for the meat and only the meat. Instead, we’re doubling down on flavor with a few key twists.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs. ground venison (or beef)
- 6 strips of bacon
- 1 onion, diced with your go-to culinary knife
- A generous shake of Tacticalories Leatherhead Old School Chili Seasoning Mix
- 2 4 oz. cans of tomato sauce
- 2 cups of beef broth
- 2 Tbsp. of hot honey
Directions
- Sauté the bacon and onion in your pot. This builds a flavor foundation that’ll make your chili unforgettable.
- Drain the oil, then brown the venison in the same pot.
- Once the venison is browned, season liberally with Tacticalories Leatherhead Chili seasoning. Don’t be shy — the spoils of your hunt deserve bold flavor.
- Mix in the tomato sauce and beef broth to create a rich base.
- Stir in that hot honey. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and it’ll take your chili to the next level.
- Blend everything with an immersion blender, if you have one. This step creates a smooth chili that’ll have you coming back for seconds (and thirds).
