Easy chili using ready-made bbq beef brisket with ranch beans adds a southwestern homestyle twist quickly made in about thirty minutes
BBQ Beef Brisket Chili
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
My recipe of the day is for bbq beef brisket chili made quickly (in about thirty minutes) using a ready-cooked bbq beef brisket.
I am posting along with other blogging friends for a #ChiliCookoff. You can see other recipes listed below.
Finding a Chili
At first I wasn’t sure what kind of chili I wanted to make since I had a number of the usual suspects already on the blog. Then I noticed a photo somewhere on a larger corporate site for a bbq type chili topped with Fritos and I was intrigued. I have seen bbq huts here and there that will serve chili on their menu.
So I thought I might give it a try using a frozen bbq beef mix and doctoring it up with ranch style beans and lots of seasonings. This is not any Texas type chili, nor is it anything you might find in an ICS cookoff, but as far as something a family might enjoy, it works. Especially with the cheese topper and the Fritos.

Notes
And there you go….a filling, delicious chili in only half an hour. I have never tried those prepackaged beef briskets from Kroger but I can see that it would be a great thing to have in the freezer, especially since this chili sounds so good.
Somehow when I imagined it I thought it was in the deli case near the bacon- I had looked it up on the app. But it turns out it was frozen, but I bought it anyway. I have bought their precooked pork belly and liked that (and that is near the bacon) plus they have a few other things. Sometimes it’s fun to make up something quick and easy.
This sounds so delicious. I’m a total fan of brisket, and this one is so convenient! I love the Fritos on top too. Great minds!
Ranch Style Beans? I’m going to have to check those out the next time I’m in the canned bean aisle!!!
I like that you used BBQ beef brisket, I bet that adds a ton of flavor! Plus, who doesn’t love Fritos and cheese on top!
I am all about brisket in chili! This sounds incredible.
I love that this uses a BBQ beef! This sounds really good, and I would like to give this recipe a try!
