A tidbit of leftover coffee or a small amount of chocolate chips are good mixed into a big pot of chili.

you might try using oxtails as well and cooking it slowly.
One of my favorite recipes when I was in university was large chunks of bottom sirloin, get the stuff from a restaurant outlet store, like just a hunk of meat, trim two inch or similar cubes.
Brown to carmelize,
Then add like four green peppers sliced, and two white onions sliced
Throw in a 28oz can of diced hunt's diced tomatoes
and another 28oz can of hunts whole tomatoes.
Thats it, season the meat with salt and throw salt in there on the tomatoes to help break them apart and simmer three four or whatever hours til tenderness is done. Then add fresh black pepper. You can add black pepper while stewing, but black pepper stewed along time has a tendency to upset the stomach so best to add it at the end.
Simple and people told me it was the best theyve tried. We used to call it "olefashioned" Alot of the kids I went to school with lived off some easy delicious meals like that I made.
If you want to get fancy, get bread rounds, hollow out to like a bread chili bowl and serve the stew in that. Anyways, its a must to have good fresh bread.
The best way if you have a large enough pan is to braise all the meat and ingredients with halved skinned potatoes in the oven. Ie, the meat and potatoes stick out about one/third out of the tomatoes and liquid in dry heat over several hours, like shit, prolly 250 degrees. Im a tinkerer so no set rules in the kitchen.
Play some cards with buddies,drink some beer and have a great EASY meal cooking.
Great football food for friends as well, Fill them up with food if they are drinking and then driving home. Or throwing a party, always provide at some point great food, to eliminate the drunken annoyances of people drinking on an empty stomach.
Now, thats, Olefashioned

Tomatoes aren't even native to Italy. They're from South America! Itatly never even had tomatoes till about a few hundred years ago. So, how would they know anything about sauce?! Damn Italians and their greasy hair. Ask a Incan decendent to make some tomato "gravy."
