Yield 8 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 20

8 oz dry, red kidney beans (soaked over night)
3 strips of thick, smoked bacon cut into 1/8" x 1" pieces
(if not smoked bacon, add 1/4 tsp. smoked salt)
1 yellow onion (baseball size) coarsely chopped
2-1/2 lbs beef (chuck, top round steak, flanken, or skirt steak) cut into 1 inch cubes
6 medium jalapeno peppers seeded and chopped
1 medium size cubinello pepper cut into 3/4 inch pieces (or toro, or green chilies)
1 medium size sweet red pepper cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1 - 4 inch cayenne pepper seeded and finely diced (or dried)
2 serrano peppers finely diced
16 whole garlic cloves (yes, I said sixteen, that is 2 per serving)
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. dark chili powder
1 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. instant coffee
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. Frank's hot sauce (or any Louisiana red, hot sauce)
28 oz can of crushed tomatoes with basil
28 oz can of whole peeled tomatoes

Steps:

  • Boil the beans in one quart of water for 15 minutes. Drain, rinse and repeat. This removes much of the soluble protein that caused flatulence. Fry bacon in a 4-quart, heavy kettle. Remove bacon bits. Brown the meat cubes in the bacon grease in the kettle. Brown meat in 3 or 4 batches. Remove meat. Saute onion in the bacon grease in the kettle until caramelized (10 to15 minutes). Add bacon, peppers and garlic cloves and cook for a minute more. Add meat cubes and remaining ingredients except for whole tomatoes and beans. Simmer uncovered (to reduce) for 1-1/2 hours stirring often. Add whole tomatoes with juice and the beans. Simmer for another 1/2 hour or until beans are tender. Better if left to cool on the stove and then refrigerated over night to blend flavors. Re-warm to serve. Serve in wide rimmed soup dishes and top with grated Mexican four cheese or cheddar or jack. Goes great with crusty garlic toast, a real caesar salad and cold Mexican beer.
