Time 2h30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons bacon drippings
2 large onions, chopped
8 pounds beef stew meat, or coarse ground chili beef
5 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 tablespoons ground red chile pepper
4 tablespoons mild chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
¼ cup sweet Hungarian paprika
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
3 (10 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
3 cups water
2 tablespoons salt
¼ cup dried parsley
1 fresh jalapeno peppers
1 cup masa harina flour

Steps:

  • Melt the bacon drippings in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are translucent.
  • Combine the beef with the garlic, ground chile, chili powder and cumin. Add this meat-and-spices to the onions in the pot. Break up any meat that sticks together as you cook, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes, until meat is evenly browned (very browned, not just gray). Sprinkle in Hungarian paprika and oregano.
  • Pour in the tomato sauce, tomato paste, water, salt, parsley and jalapeno. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour. NOTE: True Texans DO NOT add beans to their chili, but my husband loves them, so this is the point where you can add as many cans of drained and rinsed pinto beans as you wish (I add 2 cans, but shhhhhh don't tell my Daddy!!!).
  • During cooking you may squeeze the jalapeno as it softens against the sides of the pot to release more heat if desired.
  • Mix in the masa harina, and cook while stirring for 30 minutes longer, or until desired consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust seasonings.

BIG DADDY'S TEXAS RED CHILI



Big Daddy's Texas Red Chili image

BD says, "My standard chili served me well over the years until I discovered the joy of Internet shopping. This gave me access to all sorts of wonderful ingredients previously unavailable. For chili this meant access to real chiles. Ancho chiles (the dried form of the Poblano) can be rehydrated and simmered to create a wonderful puree that adds character and depth to all sorts of dishes. Not wanting to change my original chili recipe (nostalgia, you know) I created Texas Red. This chili recipe is now my very favorite." StevenHB: Favorite chili of my older daughter and the rest of the family as well. See: http://www.bigdaddyskitchen.com/cookbook/recipes/Big%20Daddy's%20Texas%20Red.htm

Time 2h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 (28 ounce) can low-sodium crushed tomatoes (lo-salt)
2 (15 ounce) cans beef broth
1 lb ground pork
2 lbs beef round steak
4 medium dried ancho chiles
3 tablespoons chili powder (Pendery's Top Hat chili powder blend preferred)
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon Mexican oregano
3 dried hot chili peppers, of your choice crushed (optional, depending on desired heat)
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups cooked pinto beans (optional)
2 medium bay leaves
2 medium onions, chopped
2 (7 ounce) cans anaheim chilies, chopped
1/4 cup pickled jalapeno pepper, chopped
ground black peppercorns
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Beef should be "course chili grind" or sliced into 1/4-inch or less strips about 1-inch long. Anaheim chiles are frequently called green chiles in the market.
  • Remove the seeds and stem from the Ancho chiles. Put the chiles into a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. When done remove from heat, cover and set aside.
  • While the chiles are simmering brown the ground pork, drain and set aside. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef round and ground black pepper to taste, to the pot. Break up any lumps and cook, stirring occasionally until the meat is evenly browned.
  • Stir in the ground chili powder, salt, cumin, garlic, bay leaf and onions. Add beef broth to barely cover. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes (adding more broth if necessary).
  • While the beef and onions are simmering place the Ancho chiles in a blender with about ¼ cup of the water from the saucepan and whir until pureed. Stir the pureed Anchos and all remaining ingredients into the meat mixture and simmer for a ½ hour.
  • For best results allow chili to cool completely and then reheat.

DAD'S CHILI



Dad's Chili image

I am not a big lover of chili but growing up I always loved my Dad's chili. I didn't have the recipe when he died and after lots of digging in my memories and trial and errors I finally figured it out. It's a 'sweet' chili rather than a spicy one but could very easily be spiced up. It always gets rave reviews whenever I make it. I use a packet of McCormick's Original Chili Seasoning for seasoning and it's awesome!
