I'll play-
As chili pictures always allow for healthy, rational, and friendly discourse, allow me to present tonight's Dinner Pic.
We begin with 3 pounds of prime Black Angus.






Add 16 oz of Chorizo sausage






Add a boatload of garlic, serano, anaheim, poblano, and jalepeno peppers, red onion, some tomatoes, chicken stock (bear with me), beef stock, cumin, honey, salt and pepper, and (sorry Texans) black beans.  Simmer for a few hours....amuse yourself by drinking a few Tecate and Negra Modello....pour a Negra Modello in the chilli....wait as it simmers....






Okay, well, you've got a couple beers in you, so let's make the accents for this dish....





First up, an avocado relish





It's basically avocado, red onion, a lot of fresh garlic, salt & pepper, and cilantro.  Mmmm....smells good.






Avocado isn't everyone's thing, so the relish is served on the side...don't like it?  Don't eat it.
Next up we whisked together a cumin crema:  toasted cumin seeds, salt, pepper, and sour cream or creme fraische.  Let is sit for an hour or two while you stir the chilli and drink another Tecate.
Or, you can be industrious and chop some green onions and cilantro for garnish.
When the chilli has reduced down, simmering until the beef is fork tender, plate it with a bit of the avocado relish, some cumin crema, and I like to have a bit of jack and cheddar chees with some green onion on my plate.  Oh, almost forgot....for the "side", I made jalapeno cornbread.
Okay, here's the spread-












Okay....on the table:





Valmet M-76 folder in 5.56 wearing a Bulgarian waffle mag that yours truly converted to fit, plus 3 factory mags on the table.





Scrap Yard Knife SOD (Son of Dogfather).  7.5" blade, .250" thick, desert tan, with Rainwalker Kydex sheath.





Glock Model 23 'fo-tay.  Galco SOB holster.





Two Fingers Tequilla (No good stuff in the house right now...thought I at least had some Sauza Commemoritivo!)





And the aforementioned Negra Modelo, which was required for the actual cooking of the chilli, but goes quite well with the dish.
This one was pretty spicy, and that's coming from a pepperhead.
Desert is cheesecake with a Raspberry syrup/reduction.  Pix of that are forthcoming.





Edit...reduction finished; cheesecake served....Mmmmm....






Okay Texans, bash me for the beans, but I will say, this was gooooooooood.  *burp*

  2. set beef aside





  3. Brown chorizo, set aside





  4. drain off most of the fat (leave 3-4 tablespoons in the bottom of the pot).





  5. Add red onion and cook until onions are soft.





  6. Add garlic and diced fresh peppers; cook for 2-3 minutes being careful not to scorch the garlic





  7. add chili powder and cumin, cook 2 min





  8. add beer and cook until it reduced by 1/2-3/4





  9. return beef and sausage to the pot, add chicken and beef stock, tomatoes, chipotle/adabo puree, and honey and bring to a boil





  10. reduce the heat to medium and let simmer 45-50 min





  11. add beans and cook for 15-20 minutes until beans are tender, add salt, pepper, hot sauce, etc, and the juice of one lime to taste.








Guacamole relish






The relish is easy









  • 2 avocados pitted peeled and diced





  • 1/2 of a red onion diced





  • 3-4 cloves of fresh garlic





  • 1 jalapeno and one serano chili





  • a teaspoon of lime





  • fresh chopped cilantro to taste





Directions







  1. toss together in a small bowl with cracked black pepper and sea salt





  2. let it sit refrigerated for at least an hour to set up








The crema is sour cream or creme fresche with salt, pepper, and toasted cumin.





whisk it together, and put it in the refrigerator for 2 hours. This lets the flavors blend a bit.
Use the relish and creama to accent the chili. I also topped with cheese, green onions, and some fresh chopped cilantro.
Anything you don't like, feel free to leave out




ThePitbullOfLove's cheesecake with a Raspberry syrup/reduction



Ingredients



  • 15 graham crackers, crushed




  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted




  • 4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese




  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar




  • 3/4 cup milk




  • 4 eggs




  • 1 cup sour cream




  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract




  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour


Directions



  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 inch springform pan.




  2. In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press onto bottom of springform pan.




  3. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Blend in
    milk, and then mix in the eggs one at a time, mixing just enough to
    incorporate.


  4. Mix in sour cream, vanilla and flour until smooth. Pour
    filling into prepared crust.Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour.


  5. Turn the
    oven off, and let cake cool in oven with the door closed for 5 to 6
    hours; this prevents cracking. Chill in refrigerator until serving.




  6. For the Raspberry reduction, I found at the local Harris Teeter, a black
    can of Raspberries (in the canned fruits section).  I made a simple
    syrup ( cup of sugar to 1 cup of water over medium heat, stirring until
    the sugar dissolves).  I added the canned raspberries and cooked on low
    heat until the sauce thickened up.  Spoon over slices of
    cheesecake....yummy.

If you add too much heat  (spices), a little sugar will pull that back down as well.

Here is one from an archived thread.



I have been hearing alot of heated debate over chili lately. I have always loved chili myself and make it just about every chance I get, which is not as often as I would like, because my wife gets tired of the stuff easily. First of all, this recipe has beans. So all you haters can shut up or get out. I use all natural ingredients bought locally at the farmers market, with the exception of the ground beef and various spices.

There are many different variations of chili, but this is one that I have been perfecting for years for my own tastes. Its a little on the hot side, and is very hearty and chunky.



I start off by combining in a 1:1:1 ratio of dried black, kidney, and pinto beans. Measure approximately 1 1/4 cup and place in large bowl.







Boil water and fill bowl to brim and cover.







Allow beans to soak in water for approximately 8-12 hours.







I went to the farmers market and got a few yellow onions, bell pepper, shallot, garlic, jalapeno, and habanero peppers. A also got 8 roma tomatoes.







I start out by preheating the oven to 400 degrees and a half and de-seed the tomatoes.







In another large bowl, add extra virgin olive oil, fresh pepper and ground sea salt. Stir to evenly coat the tomatoes. Repeat pervious step with the other vegetables.











Put seasoned vegetables onto large nonstick cookie sheet and place in oven.







Mince about 6 to 8 large garlic cloves.







Once the tomatoes start to turn black, remove pan from oven.







In a large pot, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and add the minced garlic. Cook on medium until garlic begins to brown. Add 1 to 2 pounds of ground chuck to garlic/oil mixture. Once meat browns, strain.







Take roasted vegetables and place in large bowl. Add about a cup of water or chicken broth. Using a blender, chop vegetables into desired consistency. I prefer chunky, but not too chunky.







Put beef back into pot and add vegetables and beans. If should look something like this:







Here comes the unexact part of the recipe: Seasonings. Here is what you are going to need.







I usually add about 6 to 8 tablespoons of chili powder and about 2 tablespoons of cumin, 2 tablespoons of paprika, 1 tablespoon on garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon on onion powder. Everything else is up to you.



Here it is with the seasonings added:







Allow to cook for as long as you want. I usually allow 2 to 3 hours minimum. Here is the finished product:







Final Presentation!!!









I like to wash mine down with a nice Boston Lager. ETA: the milk is my wife's.



Serve with cheese and crackers and green onions if you got them. If you want to get hard core, add 1 pound of diced summer sausage to the ground beef as you begin to cook the meat. You could even add some fresh corn when you mix the beans in. If you want to be even more outrageous, you can add diced potatoes about 2 hours before serving (This, although making the most hearty and manly concoction possible, verges on the boarder with stew. But hey, it would still be incredible)



Enjoy.

So all you haters can shut up or get out. I use all natural ingredients bought locally at the farmers market, with the exception of the ground beef and various spices.
There are many different variations of chili, but this is one that I have been perfecting for years for my own tastes. Its a little on the hot side, and is very hearty and chunky.

I start off by combining in a 1:1:1 ratio of dried black, kidney, and pinto beans. Measure approximately 1 1/4 cup and place in large bowl.

Enjoy the recipe guys!

This is more of an ingredient list than a recipe because I don't measure anything. It's all to taste. Anywho;





1.5# choice stew meat


.5# 80/20 ground beef


2 cans "chili beans"


1 can kidney beans


1 can chipotles in adobo


2 fresh jalapenos


2 white onions


2 cloves garlic


3 bell peppers


2 jars canned tomatoes





All the following is to taste;





Fresh cracked black pepper


Kosher salt


Cumin


Chili powder


Paprika


Garlic powder


Parsley


Oregano


White pepper


Onion powder


Cayenne pepper
Meat gets browned than set aside, veggies get sweated, than everything else is added and brought  to a boil. Heat is than turned down to a simmer for how ever long you want really, I think I simmered this for a bought two hours give or take.





All the ingredients(minus the fresh garlic cloves)








Everything prepped








Simmering








Just about right

3 lbs 93/7 ground beef
1 lbs chopped smoked brisket
4 cans fire roasted tomatoes
6 cans fire roasted green chiles
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 can light red kidney beans, rinsed
1 can dark red kidney beans, rinsed
cheyenne pepper
dark chili powder
salt
black pepper

Start browning the beef in a big pot.  Sprinkle chili powder until you can no longer see the ground beef.  Sprinkle cheyenne until you can't see anything but the edges of the chili powder.  Mix it in with the ground beef as it browns.

Once the beef is browned, season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the brisket, tomatoes, and chilis.  Sprinkle chili powder until you can no longer see the chili.  Sprinkle cheyenne until you can't see anything but the edges of the chili powder.  Mix it in, adjust for taste.

Add the beans.  Let it simmer for a couple of hours.

That's kinda my base recipe, I change things depending on how I feel.  It's very meaty...not one of those Midwest vegetable soups they try to pass off as chili.  I use the lean ground beef, but I don't drain it, it never comes out greasy.

This a quick, simple recipe - no surprises here.  The chuck roast is fatty and has a lot of flavor.  

3 lb chuck roast
16 oz can crushed tomatoes
12 oz can stewed tomatoes
12 oz can red beans
12 oz can black beans
2-3 Tbsp chili powder of choice
salt/pepper to taste
1/2 tsp cumin (or thereabouts)
1 tsp fresh garlic, crushed
1 large vidalia onion, diced
red green and yellow bell pepper, diced

Trim excess fat, cube the meat, brown it in oil with salt and pepper, put aside.  I cook the fat with the meat and eat the cracklins.   Saute onion and pepper, then add beef, spices and all canned goods.  Add hots of your choice to taste.  Simmer an hour.  

Why beans?  Because it adds fiber and keeps me and everyone else from blocking up tight.

I make chili by feel not from a recipe, but a few things you need in it are a big dark beer Guinness is fine I like Murphy's Chocolate stout and for heat don't use Tabasco or any of that crazy crap you find in Novelty stores like Uncle Franks Butthole burner hot sauce. Use Sriracha, it makes everything taste better. And it has actual flavor since its ground up peppers and not just vinegar infused with peppers like that other stuff.

Just brown ground beef and light brown on the beef sirloin I also like to cook the onion with the meat. Three Key parts is one Strong coffee, Two get dark beer not some cheap dark beer and Three get good Cocoa! You mix all the rest in your pot or cock pot and cook to your liking  My wife hates all other Chili but loves this.  This can be made with beans or the ones who don't want beans can put this on top of there hot dogs!

3 Pounds of venison, I prefer elk cut into 1.5" cubes.  Sometimes I also throw in a pound of ground venison.
1  pound of thick-cut bacon, chopped
2 medium yellow onions, chopped
1 medium red onion, chopped
2 jalapeno chili peppers, chopped
6 habanero peppers, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 yellow pepper, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
8oz. can of chipotle chilies in adobo sauce, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
¼ cup of balsamic vinegar
4 tbls of chili powder
1 tbls of paprika
1 tbls of cumin
1 tbls salt
1 tbls black pepper
1 tbls cinnamon
¼ cup of honey
1 tbls molasses
16oz of Guinness or other stout beer
½ cup of good red wine (I am not a wine person, so I just grabbed a red that was not in a box)
1 can of whole plum tomatoes 28oz
1 can crushed tomatoes 28oz
2 cans of black beans 28oz
Chopped cilantro

1. In a large pan, sauté the venison until just cooked. Drain and set aside. Cook in batches to keep from crowding in pan.
2. In a large pot with a heavy bottom, Sauté bacon over medium heat until brown and has given up its fat. Remove and set aside.
3. Sauté onions and peppers in bacon fat, stirring frequently until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and vinegar and cook for two minutes, add chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, cinnamon and cook, stirring often, for about 3 minutes. Add venison and bacon stir well and cook for one minute.
4. Add honey, molasses, beer, wine and tomatoes. Mix well; bring to a boil lower heat to low.
5. Cook at a slow simmer, uncovered for an hour and stir frequently. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more chili powder or chipotle. Chilies if you want it hotter.
6. Add beans and cook for another hour, continuing to stir. The chili is done when it’s thick enough to your liking.


Before adding tomatoes, beer, and beans. Makes about 8 quarts.
