kosher is a flakey salt and dissolves more completely.  it tastes less salty as a result.

I like Ancho chili powder -  I buy it from a Mexican supermarket down in East Dallas when I'm down that way, whatever Mexican imported brand they have it in.
It's not the hottest, but I am cooking for the wife and kids much of the time so it works for me. It's a medium to mild heat powder.

If it's just for me and/or the buds, I just add more cayenne. (and drink more beer)

I made a chili last night. I call it 2 beer chili.  Just a quick easy one. I don't really measure anything, just adds what looks good. Last night I used 2 lbs ground beef. But it's good with cubed steak, or I like to use antelope too.

Most important ingredient is 2 of your favorite beers

Started with a stock pot with hot olive oil. Added the 2 lbs of hamburger and a onion that was diced. Cooked hamburger till done. Deglazed pan with a good beer, drink the other beer.  I used an fullsail IPA. Then I added everything else and simmered till it was a good consistency. About an hour.

Everything else that was in it:
1 can tomato sauce
2 cans diced green chilies
Cumin
Paprika
Habanero powder
Chili powder
Red pepper flakes
Salt
Pepper
Garlic powder

Add the seasoning until  you get a flavor profile you like.

I served it with good tortia chips and of course another beer, or two.

Possible dumb question, but I am new to cooking - When the directions say "cubed beef" what cut are they referring to?
Also, would this same meat working in a burrito?

thanks

It's steak cut into roughly bite-sized cubes. A little big for a burrito IMO, but you can put just about anything in one,

I do this, it turns out great everytime:

   * 2 pounds ground beef chuck
   * 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
   * 2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with juice
   * 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
   * 1 large yellow onion, chopped
   * 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
   * 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
   * 3 serano chili peppers, seeded and chopped
   * 2 cubes beef bouillon
   * 1/2 cup beer
   * 1/4 cup chili powder
   * 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
   * 1 tablespoon minced garlic
   * 1 tablespoon dried oregano
   * 2 teaspoons ground cumin
   * 3 teaspoons hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™)
   * 1 teaspoon dried basil
   * 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
   * 2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
   * 1 teaspoon paprika
   * 1 teaspoon white sugar

Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chuck and sausage into the hot pan, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease.

Pour in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Add the onion, green and red bell peppers, chili peppers, bouillon, and beer. Season with chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, oregano, cumin, hot pepper sauce, basil, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, and sugar. Stir to blend, then cover and simmer over low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

After 2 hours, taste, and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. Remove from heat and serve, or refrigerate, and serve the next day.
