I put together a few pictures of a no bean chili that I made last night for our local Home Builders Association Chili cook off. Which we won this evening. I was the only no bean chili in the competition, and everyone kept telling me how real chili doesn't have beans.
All of the meat. Ground Beef, Ground Pork, Pork Chops, Sirloin and Smoked sausage. 
A couple of chopped yellow onions, chopped smoked sausage and ground pork in the pot. 
Add in the chopped sirloin, chopped up pork chops, and later ground beef (not shown). 
Turn the stove on high and add a bunch of cumin, Hungarian paprika, chili powder, salt and black pepper. 
Once the meat is browned good and onions are cooked down, add the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Cook down and add more spices per taste. I like to add a good bit of hot sauce as well. Sometimes I'll add cayenne pepper, but since this was for a chili cook off I wanted to not make it too hot. There was a good bit of heat from the hot Hungarian paprika. 
Enjoy with some sour cream and cheese. This isn't a dinner pic so no firearms, staplers, tape measures or knives  .
