WISCONSIN BLUE RIBBON CHILI

This chili earned its blue ribbon at a chili cook-off three years in a row! It is a mild, sweet chili, but it could always be spiced up with a little hot sauce. In Wisconsin, chili has macaroni noodles in it, which my husband thinks is the best part of this recipe. Enjoy! Add canned kidney beans with the macaroni, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh vegetables, flavorful spices, and tender cuts of meat to ensure the best flavor.
  • Brown the meat well: Browning the meat adds depth of flavor to the chili. Don't overcrowd the pot; cook the meat in batches if necessary.
  • Sauté the vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables brings out their sweetness and adds another layer of flavor to the chili.
  • Use a variety of spices: Chili powder, cumin, oregano, and paprika are classic chili spices, but don't be afraid to experiment with others like cinnamon, nutmeg, or even chocolate.
  • Simmer the chili for a long time: The longer the chili simmers, the better the flavors will meld together. Aim for at least 1 hour, but longer is even better.
  • Taste the chili and adjust the seasonings as needed: Chili should have a balance of flavors, so taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or spices to taste.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Classic toppings for chili include cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro. But you can also get creative with toppings like avocado, cornbread crumbs, or even a fried egg.

Casablanca chili is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold day. With its combination of beef, vegetables, and spices, it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
