MOM'S PERFECT CHILI
Smoky tomato flavors lead the way in this comforting classic. This is the perfect chili recipe in my opinion--it's not so fancy that it's intimidating at all, but it's definitely a step above chili packet recipes and chili beans. Serve topped with desired garnishes, such as jalapeno, green or white white onion, cheese, sour cream, cilantro, and hot sauce.

MOM'S EASY CHILI
I used Mom's chili recipe and added a few things of my own over the years. I put it together in the crock pot the night before, throw it in the fridge (just the crock), then before leaving for work the next morning I put the crock in the base, plug it in and it's yummy when I get home.

For chicken boil until done approx 45 mins or until whole chicken start to float. Then remove from pot. Save 1 cup broth and set aside. Allow meat/chicken to cool then shred meat and place in a bowl. Open cans of las palmas. In a large Pot heat Vegetable oil and add minced garlic cook garlic approx 30-40 secs then sprinkle in flour while shaking pot so that the oil and flour create a rue and not clump when flour starts to brown reduce heat to medium then slowly add while stiring both cans of Las palmas. Add Oregano, salt & 1/4 tub Baca's red chili. Simmer 20 mins stiring occassional so that chili doesn't burn on the bottom of the pot.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and firm red chilies. This will ensure that the chilies have a good flavor and are not too spicy.
- Remove the seeds from the chilies if you don't want the sauce to be too spicy. You can also wear gloves to protect your hands from the chili's capsaicin.
- Roast the chilies before blending them. This will help to bring out their flavor and make the sauce more fragrant.
- Use a high-powered blender to get a smooth sauce. A regular blender may not be able to handle the tough skins of the chilies.
- Add other ingredients to taste. This could include garlic, onion, cumin, or oregano.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
- Let the sauce cool slightly before serving. This will make it easier to handle and prevent it from splattering.
