Best 4 Bourbon Potted Chili Onions Recipes

GRILLED BOURBON ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the onions with vegetable oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered and turning occasionally, until tender and charred, 15 to 20 minutes; roughly chop.
• Combine the bourbon, ketchup, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a large skillet. Simmer over medium-high heat until the sauce has thickened and the alcohol has burned off, about 3 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SPICY BOURBON CHILI

Steps:

• Brown Ground Chuck and minced garlic.
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onions and cook for 10 minutes.
• Add the ground chuck and garlic mixture to pot. Stir in remaining ingredients except bourbon and beans. Use only 1 teaspoon of ground red pepper to begin with, adding more for hotter chili.
• Simmer uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Add Bourbon and kidney beans and simmer for 1/2 hour longer.

BOURBON PORK LOIN CHILI

• Turn heat down to medium. Add remaining 4 Tablespoons of vegetable oil to pot. Add red bell pepper, jalepenos, onion cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Sweat vegetables until onions are soft.
• Add in the garlic and saute for 1 minute just until you smell the garlic cooking.
• Add the bourbon and let cook for 2 minutes.
• Add in the honey, kidney beans, black beans, and tomatoes. Turn up the heat until mixture is bubbling.
• Turn the heat down to lowest setting and simmer for at least 3 hours. Or until the pork is buttery and tender.
• Place cooked chili in refrigerator overnight to allow flavors to meld.
• Slowly reheat over medium low heat before serving.
• Top with cheddar cheese, sour cream, avoocados, and cilantro.

BRIAN'S BOURBON CHILI

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, add beef, 1/4 cup bourbon, half the garlic, oregano, and sage. Cook, breaking up beef with a wooden spoon, until meat is browned, 6 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beef mixture to a medium bowl and set aside; discard remaining juices.
• In the same pot over high heat, heat olive oil. Add onion, bell peppers, jalapeño, orange juice, butter, and remaining garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Add chili powder, chipotle, cayenne, and salt and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute. Add remaining bourbon, reduce heat to medium, and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 8 minutes.
• Add tomatoes and bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Add beans and reserved beef. (If mixture is dry, add up to 1 cup water.) Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, for 1 hour. Before serving, stir together sour cream and mint in a small bowl. Divide chili among bowls and garnish each with about 1 tablespoon Cheddar and 2 teaspoons mint sour cream. Serve with tortilla chips.
