Heat a large saucepan over medium heat.

Crumble 1 and 1/2 lb lean ground beef into the pot and combine with the diced onion, celery, and carrots.

Render the fat from the beef while cooking until the onions are translucent.

Add 4 minced garlic cloves just before adding the liquid to avoid burning the garlic.

Stir in 5 and 1/2 oz of tomato paste, ensuring it coats the beef evenly.

Add 30 oz of chopped tomatoes to the pot and stir.

Pour in 2 cups of beef broth, using some to rinse out the tomato cans for extra flavor.

Add the seasoning mix: 1 and 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons paprika, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons onion powder, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons black pepper.

Stir everything together and let it cook down for a bit before serving.
