Yield 8 people

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 pound ground chuck, and
1 pound chuck roast chopped into ½ inch stew meat pieces (or shredded pork) (or italian sausage in ½ inch pieces or ground) (or two pounds of chicken instead of red meat - if using chicken consider adding liquid smoke), by frying the meat in the pot and then shredding it with a fork once its cooked through and still moist)
1 stick butter
1 can corn kernels (drained)
2 cans pinto beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cup chopped celery
1 chopped red bell pepper
1 chopped green bell pepper
1 chopped red onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 large cans fire roasted whole tomatoes, slightly chopped in can (not drained)
1 large can tomato paste (one small can of paste for each large can of tomatoes)
KC Masterpiece barbecue sauce
Chili powder to taste (some is hotter than others, taste test before adding next four ingredients)
Mexican spice mix (optional depending upon taste of chili powder)
Mexican hot sauce for sufficient heat
Red pepper flakes
1 chopped jalapeno (or save for topping if serving to children)
1 bay leaf
black pepper
sea salt
For toppings:
fresh cilantro
shredded four cheese Mexican blend
sour cream
one bunch green onions chopped
one can colossal black olives sliced
For accompaniments:
tortilla chips
corn bread
guacamole

Steps:

  • In large pot or dutch oven: Brown the meat with some of the chili powder and spices. Then remove meat from pot, reserving the fat and oil to the extent possible. If using lean meat, add enough oil so the meat doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot. Then add the following and fry in the meat's oil, adding enough butter to supplement: corn till browning, then add celery and green and red peppers, then add onions and garlic and fry till all are soft. Then add beans. Then add tomatoes and tomato paste. Add water if not enough fluid. Once warmed up, add barbecue sauce, chili powder and spices to taste. Then simmer below bubbling for at least one hour partially covered, stirring occasionally. (Don't store the soup in the dutch oven, to prevent rusting). (You can also use a crock pot, by first browning the meat, and then placing all of the ingredients into a crockpot (meat on top), and then cooking according to normal crock pot times.)

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

I'm allergic to tomatoes. Can I substitute another ingredient?

This chili sounds delicious, but I'm not sure I can handle the heat. I'll have to start with a smaller amount of chipotle peppers.

I'm not a big fan of chili, but this recipe looks really good. I might have to give it a try.

This chili is a great base recipe. I like to add my own personal touches, like extra garlic and a dollop of sour cream.

I made this chili exactly as the recipe said, and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little more heat.

This chili is perfect for a cold winter day. It's hearty and filling, and it warms me up from the inside out.

I love that this chili is so versatile. I can add different spices or toppings to change up the flavor.

This chili is a great way to use up leftover meat. I always have some leftover brisket or chicken in the freezer, and this is the perfect way to use it up.

I made this chili for a group of friends, and they all loved it. Even my friend who doesn't usually like chili said it was the best he'd ever had.

This chili is so easy to make, and it always turns out delicious. I love that I can throw it all in the slow cooker and forget about it.

I've tried many chili recipes over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. It's the perfect balance of spices and heat.

This chili was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone raved about the rich, smoky flavor. I'll definitely be making it again soon.
