I have a craving for Chili - need recipe

In a large pot, brown the ground beef, onions & garlic. Add spices and cook for few then add sauce, paste, & beans. Simmer for 2 -3 hours. MMMMMM

Add beer & enjoy.

1 16oz can black beans (drained)
1 29oz can refried beans
1 4oz can diced green chilies

Long ago. I discovered this website. www.extremefoods.com some of their products can make any chili good.

I pretty much murdered my taste buds with their hottest sauces, so heat no longer bothers me. But in my chili, I like to add a bunch of "Ultra Death" and then a Bear Creek chili mix for the base flavor (I think that was mentioned above). The sauces on that website are freaky hot. Great for everything I eat.

thanks for the link, i just blew 50 bux.:eek:
 
I start my base withe Carol Shelby's Chilli kit.
3lbs hamburger
1 onion
2 cans Diced tomatoes
1 Large Bottle tomato Juice
2 cans of Pinto Beans (rinsed and drained)
Add more chili powder and Cayanne Pepper & salt to taste

I'm not a "blow your head off" with spices. I like the Cayanne to just to get a little nip with a pleasant heat. Anyone can burn the crap out of chili (Daves Insanity sauce or Endorphin Rush from mo hotta mo betta) but if you like the sneak up and hit someone over the head with your chilli heat I'd suggest shopping there for some of the hot spice.

Big chunks of Moose Meat:D
Got Moose?:beer;:beer;

This is one I got years ago--but it always brings a smile and uncontrolable laughing for me!!!


Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chilli taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield, IL. Frank said, "Recently, I was honoured to be selected as a judge at a chilli cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chilli wouldn't be all that spicy; and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge 3."

Here are the scorecard notes from the event:

CHILLI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILLI

Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.

Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavour. Very mild.

Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

CHILLI # 2 - AUSTIN'S AFTERBURNER CHILLI

Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavour, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.

Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich manoeuvre. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.

CHILLI # 3 - FRED'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILLI

Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chilli. Great kick.

Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers.

Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting ****-faced from all of the beer.

CHILLI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC

Judge # 1 -- Black bean chilli with almost no spice. Disappointing.

Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chilli.

Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. woman is starting to look HOT .. just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chilli an aphrodisiac?

CHILLI # 5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER

Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chilli. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.

Judge # 2 -- Chilli using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.

Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chilli had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw them.

CHILLI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY

Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chilli Good balance of spices and peppers.

Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, garlic. Superb.

Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulphuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone.

CHILLI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILLI

Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chilli with too much reliance on canned peppers.

Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chilli peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge #3. He appears to be a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.

Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chilli, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing; it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.

CHILLI # 8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILLI

Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chilli. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.

Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chilli. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chilli pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor feller, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chilli?

Judge # 3 - No Report


Hope all have had their day brightened by this---LMAO every time I read this.
 
I find finely cut duck breast can make a gamey, flavorful chili. I've done moose and elk, and I don't have a favorite, all I'll say is that all three of those put beef to shame...:beer;
 
I don't know if it will win any awards, but here goes...
(I don't measure anything, I add til I think it's enough)

In a slow cooker: add bagged black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans, salt, pepper, enough water. cook on high til done. rinse beans. Throw back in slow cooker

cook whatever meat you want to add in a quantity that appeals to your level of "meatiness". cut up and throw in slow cooker

chop up a red onion, throw in slow cooker

chop up a couple carrots, throw in slow cooker

chop up any other veg you like, throw in slow cooker

add a tsp cummin

add a tsp or two chili powder

add some cayenne pepper for heat

add salt till you're happy

add a good dose of Tapatio hot sauce

add one can stewed tomatoes, cut up

add one small can tomato paste

use small tomato paste can to add one can water

slow cook on high for about 6 hours

uncover and cook reduce to desired thickness

TASTE THROUGHOUT... add what you think might be missing

easy enough... not too fancy, and easy on the wallet.

Ive only made my own chilli one time, i used the bear creek "darn good chilli" stuff using snap-e-tom in place of the water, added leftover prime rib that i chopped up into cubes, chilli meat wich is very course ground hamburger, added 3 cans of various beans, lots of cumin, stewed tomatos, onions, green bell peppers. i just threw it in the crock and let it cook all day. it was pretty darn good and the snap-e-tom made it just right as far as heat goes.

2lbs burger
3 cans tomato soup
