1. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. 2. Add ground beef and cook 6–8 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns, until fully cooked and no pink remains. Drain excess fat if needed. 3. Stir in chili powder and cook 30–60 seconds to toast the spice slightly. 4. Add drained kidney beans. Stir to combine. 5. Pour in pasta sauce and stir well. Use just enough to coat everything generously while keeping the chili thick. 6. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low. 7. Simmer uncovered 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. The chili should hold its shape on a spoon rather than run. 8. Taste and adjust chili powder or salt if needed. 9. Serve hot topped with shredded cheddar cheese. 10. Warm regular buns and gluten-free buns separately and serve on the side.

1. Cut beef sirloin into evenly sized bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towel and season with salt and black pepper. 2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and allow it to melt. 3. Add beef in a single layer, working in batches if needed. Sear 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Internal temperature should reach at least 135°F for medium. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside. 4. Reduce heat to medium. Add sliced onions and mushrooms to the same skillet. Cook 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly browned. 5. Sprinkle flour evenly over the vegetables and stir continuously for 1–2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste. 6. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook 5–8 minutes until gravy thickens. 7. Return the beef and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer 5–10 minutes until beef is tender and internal temperature reaches 145°F or desired doneness. 8. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Remove from heat and let rest 3–5 minutes before serving.
