[DamianJ]

I'm just making mine, and I love to try variations. What's your secret ingredient?

1 x onion
4 x garlic
a variety of fresh and dried chilies according to what you like and what you have, I am growing 12 different types this year and used 5 different ones in this)
mince beef
tomatoes (I used fresh from the garden, but tinned is fine)
squirt of tomato puree
chipotle paste
beer
worcestershire sauce

spices: cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, cinnamon

method

fry onion, garlic, chillies and spices until onion is transparent in a little oil
remove from pan
brown mince, add worcestershire sauce and some salt and pepper
add a pint of real ale, I like an IPA
cook slowly until beer is all gone
add back in the onions and shit
add toms, tom puree, a little salt and pepper and a touch of sugar
simmer on a low heat for at least 4 hours, stirring every 30 mins or so to stop it sticking to the bottom

your go...

It tastes exactly the restaurants...(I know you prolly haven't had it but their chili is awesome)

A big jar of Pace Picante Hot sauce. Cheating? Maybe.

Hey I didn't see any beans in your recipe...? "Get a rope."

Mmm, that sounds awesome.

Oh and I totally forgot the kidney beans in my recipe, obviously.

(Although my research says authentic Texan chili doesn't use beans)

i make all kinds of variations.. i tried the true texan style recently.. it's pretty minimalist though with roughly ground beef, jalepenos and tomato paste. Dam good however.

My favourite variation is what i call portuguese style. I'll make it with chuck beef chunks, chorico (portuguese sausage) and large fava beans instead of kidney.


only kinds i don't like is cincinatti style... over spaghetti... cinnamon?.. cloves? yeah can't do it...

I'm going to try this one. Wendy's chili is the best, especially when it is freshly made.

I live in Chili

spices: add a bit of dark chocolate if you have it.

[thickcash_amo]

This thread makes me smile knowing its that time of year! Oh how I love the fall!!

[Vjo]

Yeah that'd be good. Add just a tinch of sugar too which is prob good. I do add sugar to my Taco Seas Mix which I posted somewhere on gfy.

Some good recipes on this page I'd like to try them all. Adj the spice strength as needed but all look good.

I grow peppino chile pepper, soak them for 2hrs in vodka and then stuff them with mozzarella , anchovy and capers. 2 hours later I might also accidentally rub my eyes, that is even more fun. not.

It's got pretty shitty around here. My wife got it a few weeks ago while we were out and it was more of a soup than chilli.

Anyway, I'm looking for a new recipe as mine hasn't been up to par so this will work out good. Give me something to do this weekend.

I usually get some stew meat or that little cube shit, but I made some about 4 days ago with ground beef. What i did though is only barely thaw it it from frozen. just enough to cut through easily. i cubed it like that. seasoned the hell out of it and seared all sides. Then threw it in the crock pot with my chili goods and it came out later like little steak chunks. all tasty n shit.

Same general recipe. I use kidney black and regular ... pinto ?

usually throw some beer in but didnt have any this time.

all about spices though. chili powder, cumin, small oregano, paprika, chipotle, didnt have corriander. salt black and white pepper.

usually i do habanero and 3 jalapeno but just did the one habanero this time cause one person here is a sissy.

ended up being really spicey but once we added sour cream and cheese to our owls it evened right out. Cornbread too obviously.

[My Pimp]

Sounds good. I have to cook it myself .

hey Deej, what happened with your illustrated cooking lessons? I tried the one with the bacon as a basket and did a mess but really enjoyed them
