This chili recipe is so good! It did not come from a written recipe so I don't have exact measurements.I just add what's needed until it tastes right.I usually make the pinto beans from a leftover spiral ham bone (saving the liquid from the bottom of the pan the ham was cooked in-liquid gold I call it-adding to the chili also)and have the beans for dinner one night and chili the next.there's only 3 in my family so it works out just right!

Yield 3 quarts, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 24

ground beef
ground pork
diced onion
diced celery
diced green pepper
tomato sauce
water
beef base (bullion cubes will work)
cumin
chili powder
black pepper (freshly ground)
salt (optional)
roasted garlic
oregano
dry mustard
1 ounce tequila
1 (12 ounce) can beer (I use Corona)
paprika
sugar (not a lot-just enough to reduce acidity)
unsweetened cocoa powder
ground coriander
hot sauce
cayenne pepper (adjust to taste or omit)
homemade pinto beans, made using leftover ham bone from a spiral cut ham (You can also use kidney beans or canned pinto beans but chili is not as good)

Steps:

  • Brown beef and pork.
  • Drain.
  • Steam or boil the browned meat to remove the fat (please don't skip this step or your chili will be GREASY!).
  • Drain meat again and place back in pan and add onion, celery, green pepper, and some of the dry seasonings above to season the meat mixture.
  • Add all ingredients except beans to a large pot.
  • Simmer on low for 2-3 hours,adding beans the last half hour of cooking time.
