This recipe is for a large pot of chili.
Ingredients
1 pound fresh ground Pork
1/2 pound ground Chorizo Sausage
2 pounds fresh ground Chuck
1 15.5 oz can Red Kidney beans, rinsed
1 15.5 oz can Black beans, rinsed
1 15.5 oz can Chili beans, do not rinse
2 15.5 oz cans diced tomato with green chili and juice
2 Poblano peppers, charred under broiler, skin removed and roughly chopped
1 small or half a large Jalapeno, diced
1 large Green Pepper, small chopped
2 medium Spanish white onions, small chopped
1 heaping tablespoon minced Garlic (about 5 lg cloves)
1 tablespoons Kitchen Accomplice beef or Better than bullion beef paste
29 oz can Tomato sauce
29 oz can Enchilada sauce
1 pkg Williams Original Chili Seasoning, no salt added
2 tablespoons Ground Fresh Chili Paste, Chinese
1 tablespoon Onion powder, (not onion salt)
16 oz fresh water
1 beer
Brown all three types of meat in large pot, strain meat in a colander. Saute onion and bell pepper (leave it a little firm) add garlic towards the end the of saute, (careful not to burn).Transfer strained meat a large covered roaster pan or dutch oven. (I use my speckled turkey roaster pan). Add charred, skinned, chopped poblano chili's, minced jalapeno, Williams no salt chili seasoning, Chinese Chili Paste, onion powder, canned sauces and canned diced tomato with green chili, and beef broth concentrate to pot, (do not add beans yet). Bake at 350 degrees for 2 1/2 hours. Add beans and allow to cook for another hour.
You can make this item all stove top if you like, however baking it in the oven reduces and thickens the sauce: this adds a braized quality to the chili that cannot be replicated on the stove top. Trust me it is worth it. Serve this up in a bowl by itself, or top with minced fresh onion, cheddar cheese, and crushed Fritos corn chips. This also goes great with Nathan's hot dogs on the side.
* You will notice I recommend the Williams Chili Seasoning Packet w/no salt added. You could fuss around with your own seasoning base, however, this is perfectly balanced and has no salt in it, it is pure seasoning and spice.
