That looks absolutely farkin' awesome!
There is nothing that looks bad in those pictures. In fact, it all looks great! Dang, I miss El Paso...more so when I see pix like those.
The chili - you said you won't share the recipe, but will you tell me how finely you chopped the meat - it didn't look to fine - or ground.
Thanks again everybody. Neil, look for UPS, not FedEx.:-D Hope all is better with your van and trailer Brother.
The meat was not chopped very fine, it was the brisket point I had chopped up last week, so the sizes were in the half to one inch range. Actually no real big secret to my chili. I just start out with a rendered fat, bacon and then sautee some onions in it. From there th meat would go in, whatever I happened to have, this time it was brisket. Then brown the meat and I don't have exact measurements but it was chili powder, dried onion and garlic, dry chipotle flakes that I still had left. From there it gets a good boil with lid off to evap some of the liquid and concentrate the flavors. Then I used some masa powder to thicken it up. The liquid I used was the chile water from the quajillos I boiled up. I tossed in some quajillo puree as the last dump for color. I also had used some paprika for color as well. That's about it.
I was going to say, as a mod you look young, then i realized the date on the original post. That Texas red looks legit.
I'm still younger than Phil and Ron! :laugh:
