Weekend Chili Pron Fest - October 31 to November 2

[AlbuQue]

I took the leftover venison chili from last weekend, added some fire-roasted tomatoes to thicken it up.
Made a small pan of chili lasagna. It had a pretty good flavor I must say.

Are those beans in that chile from Texas??

I give it a 7. The garnish is a little distracting and the sour cream is slightly off centered.

The garnish is a little distracting ...

Replace the greens for Saltines and the SC for shredded cheddar and diced onion, and I could be set for a cold day.

Oh, and 86 the beans. Not just because I'm from TX, just don't prefer them in my chili. Prefer them with some hot cornbread on another cold day.:biggrin:

So many different kinds of chili, so little time....

Took the point frozen from my last brisket, and made a modified version of Mo-Fo's Brisket Chili. Modified = cut WAY down on the red pepper flakes, used large can of kidney beans. Crock pot did its job all day, and we ate at about 6:30 PM. Ladled mine over fritos, then topped with a whole bunch of shredded yellow American cheese.

It was really good! Spicy without being too hot. First time I'd done a brisket chili, and won't be the last.

That's nice. Tell me more.

 

[BBQ Grail]

Okay...

I started this thread and then failed to make chili this weekend. I guess the fact we had our first significant rain fall in five months and my new roof leaks like sieve might have impacted my time...

So here's how I'm going to make it up. Post all your chili recipes here over the next day or so and I'll compile them and send anyone a copy who PM's me.

I'll also get them uploaded to the recipe section. OKAY?

Thanks Larry.

Momma came home and said that the green chile was too hot and she needed some beans. So I made a pot of pintos for her to put the chile on. She's happy!

Here's a bowl of homestyle I made for an office contest on Friday.

Two questions:

1) How did you do in the contest?

2) Are you hiring?

Here's mine.

Smoked a chuckie for the first time (definitely not the last). Mmmmmmm...

Pulled it...

The boss turned it into chili. Mmmmmmmm, good.

 

[N8man]

The Pot's a simmering now....I smoked a 15lb. Brisket with Mesquite, pulled the meat, added it to my chili fixings along with some black coffee and a few dark mexican beers and it'll be done in a little while....The House Smells Wonderful...
Oh, and We Like Beans in our Chili....

Chili Pit Chili

I made my white chili this afternoon in my small BGE.

First the ingredients

I brown the bacon first in my 5 qt pot

Remove bacon and add pork to bacon grease in pot.

Heres a pic of my home-made ring that I use in the Egg. For direct heat, I place my pot on the ring. This is how I browned the bacon and pork

I add this taracotta pan filled with sand to give me a buffer from the heat.

Note: the recipe doesnt call for green pepper but I had one already cut up so I threw it in.

All ingredients simmering

Final product

Here's the recipe. This is an alternative chili to your standard red chili. I like it.
