Place meat, onion, and garlic in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven.
Cook until light colored. Add oregano, cumin, water, chili powder,
tomatoes, hot pepper sauce (more or less to taste), and salt. Bring

Note:

Even more fat can be removed if chili is stored in refrigerator,
allowing fat to rise to the top and solidify, when it can be easily
removed
