Chile Con Carne (Canning) image

I personally have not canned this one yet, but expect to soon. I'm posting by request, this recipe is from the USDA Complete Guide To Home Canning & Preserving. Be sure to measure ingredients exactly, but extra salt (or less salt), pepper or chili powder will not adversely affect canning results. Prep time does not include soaking time for beans, cooking time does not include time to get up to pressure.

This chili con carne recipe is not very healthy. It's high in fat and calories.

This chili con carne recipe is too expensive. The ingredients are all very expensive, especially the ancho chiles.

This chili con carne recipe is too time-consuming. I don't have the time to brown the ground beef and then simmer the chili for hours.

I'm not a fan of the ancho chiles in this recipe. I think they make the chili con carne taste too smoky.

This chili con carne recipe is too spicy for me. I had to add a lot of sour cream to cool it down.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili con carne turned out bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have much flavor.

This chili con carne recipe is a great way to use up leftover ground beef. It's also a great meal to make ahead of time and freeze.
