HUNTER'S SWEET 'N SPICY CHILI
This venison chili is a great recipe for someone that's new to cooking venison. Using venison and beef takes away the gamey flavor some people find from venison. The combination of savory and sweet with a punch of spice makes this the perfect chili. We loved the addition of corn and BBQ sauce. They add a bit of sweetness....

Steps:
- Panfry the steak or stew meat in a bit of olive oil. Splash on a little soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and Grill Mates Montreal seasoning (excellent)on the meat. Then cut up into 1/2 bite size.
- Brown your ground meat in a pan and drain any grease (There will be very little with venison).
- At the same time, in a large pot, put the beans (draining them prior to adding), tomatoes, con carne, chili powder, spaghetti sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, splash of Tabasco (to taste), pepper, etc. Let this heat on medium-low while browning & seasoning the meat.
- Add both the browned ground meat and cut up steak pieces into the large pot of beans. Let it simmer for about 1/2 of an hour or more. Stir occasionally so as not to scorch the chili at the bottom of the pan.
- Serve with grated cheese (the pre-grated Mexican variety in a bag works well) and corn bread is a nice compliment.

- If you like your chili spicy, add a diced jalapeño pepper or two. For a milder chili, remove the seeds from the jalapeño before dicing.
- If you're using canned beans, be sure to rinse and drain them before adding them to the chili. This will help to remove the excess salt and starch.
