Crockpot Chili - Work Chili Competition - Flat Iron Streak Smoke - Ideas Please

Using the UDS to smoke 3 Flat Iron Steaks(FIS) for 2hrs?

This will be done in a crock pot!

I have most of the chili recipe worked out:
1 lb Fresh ground chuck will be the other meat
1 jar of La Costena Chipolte chilis for heat

Looking for the unique smoke flavor to come from the smoked and cubed FIS

What wood?
2 hours (or 140F) then cube be OK

Crock 8hrs over night..

Ideas Please!

For work chili.......you want a pot that will appeal to a broad audience.

I've recently tried another method other than my longstanding use of Carol Shelby's Chili Mix.

I have to say....it yielded excellent results that my family loved.

On the table for those that wanted to spice their's up.

We had a big chili contest at work last year, and one guy brought a crock pot full of (I think Nalleys) canned chili, to which he added some sausage for pizza, and some jalapenos, and won unanimously. My home made chili did not stand a chance.

Gebhardts is the only chili powder we use. Great stuff. We always add a bit more prior to serving to wake it back up

I just smoked a flat iron Monday night. Took about 45 minutes for medium rare at 250. I buy it a lot because I can get it for around $6 on sale. Has a bit of liver flavor to it but tender and otherwise quite tasty.

Here's my top secret chili recipe, don't let anyone else know... Although until recently I've never used New Mexico chiles. I've always used at least six different varieties of chiles, from mild to hot.

Great recipe, but disagree about the tomatoes. You need some acid with all that richness and savory.
