Triple meat chili is packed with protein. Beef, pork, and shrimp combine for a hearty chili that is perfect for any fall or winter evening.
TRIPLE MEAT CHILI
I get sick of eating the same chili all the time. It is fun to experiment with new ingredients and recipes. My husband loves a thick, hearty chili and I decided to try a twist on our traditional beef only chili recipe.
WHAT KINDS OF MEAT ARE USED?
This Triple Meat Chili calls for ground beef, ground pork and 2 cans of tiny shrimp.
There are other proteins that could be used with success in this recipe!
- Ground turkey could replace ground beef or ground pork.
- Ground chicken would be a good option instead of beef or pork.
- If you don't care for shrimp or have a seafood allergy, feel free to leave the shrimp out and add an extra pound of beef or pork.
WHAT SEASONING MIX IS USED?
I grew up eating chili that was made with Williams Chili Seasoning mix. I love the bold flavors of Williams seasonings.
But…you can use any chili seasoning you prefer or you can make your own chili seasoning!
I usually use 1 or 2 packets of Williams. One packet is for 2 pounds of meat. This recipe has closer to 3 pounds of meat in it…so it is up to you how much kick you like your chili to have.
I save money by buying the bulk container of Williams Chili Seasoning at Sam's Club!
WHAT DO I SERVE WITH THE TRIPLE MEAT CHILI?
Shredded cheese is always found on top of bowls of chili at my house. We love cheese!
Oyster crackers and Frito chips are also a big part of our chili routine.
This Triple Meat Chili would also be wonderful served with some old-fashioned cornbread.

Wow, I would have never thought to add shrimp to chilli! I bet it’s really good though. I might have to try that some time my partner is away…I think he would die a little bit inside if I put seafood in his chilli haha. Thanks for sharing that recipe!
Yummy, this sounds good. It has been a few months since we have had chili. It’s not something we eat very often in our house.
I am a huge carnivore, triple meat sounds just right to me; I love chili with passion and will surely try this recipe out!
This looks delicious! I’m a big fan of chilli but it seems that every time my family makes it it just tastes like pasta sauce. This sounds really good though, I’ll have to try it out next time we’re making chilli.
What a great twist-I think ,y family would love it -BIG SHRIMP LOVERS HERE!!
Looks great! My brother loves spicy stuff, and I have a feeling he will like this dish. 🙂
That looks like great chili. I’m vegetarian so I would substitute with veggie meats, but it looks worth the try!
This sounds like amazing chili indeed and I never thought of putting Ro-tel my chili before. I am for sure making this for the family. Thanks for sharing.
Wow I never would have thought of this combination, but I’m glad you did! I can’t wait to try it now. Thanks for linking up at MeetUp Monday, and hope to see you again next week!
I usually mix up my own seasoning, BUT my boyfriend uses mixes like this so I’m excited to have him try it. I know he’ll love your recipe!
