Re: Chili: Beans or not?
Beans for me! I tend to overdo it with the beans and the wife only wants me to make it when I'm going out for a while:lv. I use kidney and pork & beans. the pork & beans sweeten it up a bit. I like it HOT so I have to make one pot hot and another medium for the others.

STIR to combine COOK beef in a pan to about medium with chili powder, onion powder and paprika ADD beef and juices to the slow cooker STIR to combine SAUTE onion, pepper, jalapenos and roasted red peppers ADD to slow cooker STIR to combine ADD cumin and chili powder and any other spices you may like to taste COOK on "Low" for atleast 2 Hours It is just some basic thing I threw together yesterday, hope someone else tries it and likes it :tu |
Re: Chili: Beans or not?
If you add corn or any vegetable other than tomatoes, onion, garlic and beans then it is not chili. It's a thick soup.

Re: Chili: Beans or not?

If you know beans about chili, you know chili ain't got know beans. "Chili" is "chili con carne" shortened, and refers not just to the chili pepper, but a preparation using chili peppers and various spices. With meat added. I've eaten at a lot of Mexican food joints and I've never seen chili con carne y frijoles, or chili con carne y arroz on any menu. Having said all that, I use a recipe called "Chili Blanco" that calls for chicken, great northern white beans, and green chilis (Anaheim is best). Garnished with green onion and grated pepper jack. It is awesome. |

1970 World Champion Chili Recipe
Interestingly, There are only 2 people that actually marketed their recipe and you can not get the exact recipes, You can go to the market and buy their packaged chili recipe. This is one of them. 2 Alarm Chili Ingredients: 2 pounds meat coarsely ground or diced 8 ounce can tomato sauce 2 cups water 1 package of 2 Alarm Chili Ingredients* Salt Instructions: Sear the meat until it becomes gray. Add tomato sauce and water. Add all the ingredients except the masa flour. Cover kettle and simmer 1 hour and 15 minutes, until meat is tender. Stir occasionally. Skim off excess grease. Mix masa flour with warm water into a smooth paste. Stir into chili to tighten it and add flavor. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes and salt to taste. Chili is ready to serve. For 1-Alarm, use only half of the red pepper. For False-Alarm Chili, leave out the red pepper. For 3-Alarm Chili or hotter, merely add hot pepper. *2-Alarm Chili mix is available in many areas. It was developed by the late Wick Fowler but for obvious reasons, the exact ingredients cannot be released by the Caliente Chili Company of Austin, Texas, who packages and distributes the mix. |
