ollie Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm thinking of making chili tomorrow night. Anyone have a recipe to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) I made a batch of chili once using (cubed) steak, coated in seasoned flour and then browned in oil with diced onions. After that, I added (IIRC) a tin of red kidney beans (rinsed), and a large can of diced tomatoes (drained). There was also some chipotle pepper (from a can) and about half a tall-boy of a decent ale. I threw some frozen corn in near the end. You could easily substitute diced fresh plum tomatoes (four or six, maybe) for the canned tomatoes, and a bell pepper or two would also be a good addition. (I think that'll make a bunch of servings; it also freezes well.)Aloha,Brad Edited November 8, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 good idea Ollie. I could use skank-tested chili recipe ( I know you're hoping for M.O.B.E. posts )You nearly can't go wrong though. If you are using a crock pot, or have a way to simmer it really long, almost any recipe will do that calls for you to just dump everything together. Whatever you find, you'll need to make sure that you have on hand, canned tomatoes, chili powder (no f'n way!), garlic, onion, meat (try ground turkeY and pork!), and probably some other aromatics depending on the recipe. I think cocoa is used sometimes.I'm due for a good chili too, so I hope to see something worth reproducing here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimoe Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Ground turkey, preferably organic, is awesome instead of beef too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headymamamyrna Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I must try that next time.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Turkey is normally a great and appropriate beef substitute since the ground form has the same texture and weight as beef; emulating it very easily and tastily (my wife's turkey lasagna fooled her militant beef-eating father).

Birdy Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I've got some chili in the slow cooker right now. I used half lean ground beef/half sausage, onions, garlic, green pepper, red pepper, jalapeno pepper, celery, cumin, cayenne, oregano, chili powder, salt, pepper, sugar, red kidney beans, black beans, tomato sauce and diced tomatoes. I have some corn to throw in later too.And some cheese and fresh onions chopped up for serving.Yay chili!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freak By Night Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 One non-traditional ingredient we put in our chili was sliced green olives. A nice addition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I used acorns, 10-12 to be exact. They were easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolarGarlic Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I generally substitute a shit pile of mushrooms whizzed up in the processor instead of meat. Other must have flavours are coriander, cumin, oregano and fresh cilantro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
