Chili Advice

[Bossmanbbq]

Just wondering if any of you have a favorite chili receipe you could share. My son and I will be making some for a church meeting on Saturday and would like to make some chili on the smoker to give it that extra kick :-D
Any suggestions? Thanks

Lot of good ones here. Just do a search for chili. I made some this week with a couple pounds of just smoked ground pork. It was real good. The unseasoned ground pork absorbed plenty of smoke without any seasonings to overpower my chili.

Then there's always the classic "deglazing the chef"

The number one tip I've ever been given for making chili was to toast the powdered chiles, chile powder and cumin before using it. It really brings out the flavor. I also like to use smoked brisket for the meat. And, please, no beans!

Admit one to Texas.

I've not spent a lot of time in Texas, but I did learn what real chili was when I was 16! Then I came home to Ohio, and have since tried to convince people that ketchup, hamburger, and double helpings of beans does not a chili make!

jt gets a 15 min time out for starting the bean debate. He has to spend it discussing water pan issues with racer:mrgreen:

Don't worry, I got your back. I like beans in my Chili.

You can add all the beans you want, just dont call it Texas Chili.

 

[jgh1204]

No tomatoes or tomato products in Texas Chili either. BTW, the reason jt is in BFE is because he put beans in the chili.

I never really called mine Texas or any other State, it's jut mine. Pretty simple recipe.

Brown the meat
cut up alot of garlic, onion, sautee with meat
open and dump a couple cans of red beans

at least 1 can of tomato paste
whatever else I have layin around the frig that sounds good
add chili powder to taste
bring to a boil
lower heat, let simmer on low for a few hours
