This chili is savory, smoky, and easy to make. Sometimes I add a can of corn too. Maybe have some sweet cornbread muffins with honey on the side.

0.5 pounds thick-cut bacon , chopped
1.5 pounds ground beef
3 cloves garlic , chopped

1 can fire-roasted diced tomatoes , 14.5 ounce
0.25 cups chili powder
1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 dash hot pepper sauce , such as Tabasco
