Looking for a good chili recipe

[Maeya]

Preferably something with more meat and less beans. Some spice is ok, but I don't want anything that burns a hole through my mouth (and through my system later).

Does anyone have any favorites? With as many Texans as we have here, I'm hoping to get a couple good responses

[Tossica]

2 cans of diced tomato
2 cans of spicy chili beans
1lb of ground turkey
5 serano peppers, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 whole yellow onion, chopped
1 green, 1 red, 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped

Brown ground turkey and add chopped peppers, garlic and onion and simmer til done. Throw everything together in crock pot and add chili powder. Cook on high for 3-4 hrs or on low all day.


Mmm mmm chili.

Change the spice amounts to suite your tastes.

6 pounds beef brisket, coarse grind
4 tablespoons ground hot red chili
1 tablespoon ground mild red chili
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons dried oregano
8 garlic cloves, crushed
4 bay leaves
3 tablespoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon salt
1/3 cup bacon drippings
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
4 (12 ounce) cans beer
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Hot pepper sauce (to taste)

Heat the bacon fatm, add meat and all spices. Brown the meat.

Add the rest, bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer. Taste for seasoning after an hour or so, then just let it go for the day.

secret ingredient to a good chili is a cinnamon stick


I generally use:

4lbs ground beef (or buffalo)
2x 14oz cans of crushed tomato
6-10x garlic cloves
4-6 tbsp chili powder
4 tbsp oregano
1 large onion
1 tbsp cilantro
1 tbsp worstershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1x 8oz can red kidney beans

chop the onion up semi fine
in a fry pan add some olive oil (or whatever oil you like) and cook the onion until it's soft/turning brown
add the garlic and some salt

now toss in the meat, and scramble fry it till it's mostly cooked
now dump in the rest of the stuff basically

you can finish it in the pot, or dump it all in a slow cooker at this point

sometimes I'll add a splash of red wine, or occassionally some flavourfull liqour at this point (brandy, whiskey, rum, etc)

last but not least, I'll toss in a whole cinnamon stick

It adds a certain something that people have a hard time placing

good stuff

Here's a great recipe for you:

WATER, BEEF, CEREAL (OATMEAL, YELLOW CORN FLOUR), CHILI POWDER (CHILI PEPPERS, FLAVORING), TOMATOES (WATER, TOMATO PASTE), SUGAR, SALT, HYDROLYZED CORN, SOY, AND WHEAT PROTEIN, MODIFIED FOOD STARCH, FLAVORING, AUTOLYZED YEAST, MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, SPICE

Just mix some of that together and you're good to go.
