Hey Red... as requested, here's my chili recipe (first publication) and since I had no clever name for it, and it's spicy, I've decided to call it Reddhott Chili
- enjoy.
1 to 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lb Sirloin, Cubed
1 Lb Ground Meat (Beef, Turkey, Buffalo – I prefer Coarse Ground Beef)
2 Med Yellow Onions, Finely Chopped
4 Carrots, Finely Chopped
2 Cloves Garlic, Minced
1 12oz Bottle of Stout Beer (I prefer Marble Brewery Oatmeal Stout)
1 14.5 Oz Can Diced Tomatoes
1 6 Oz Can Tomato Paste
1 7 Oz Can Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce (I prefer La Costena Brand)
2 Cups Beef Stock (I prefer Better Than Bouillon)
1 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
1 Tbsp Cumin, Ground
1 Tsp Cayenne Powder (Use less for a milder chili)
1 Tsp Curry Powder
1/2 Tsp Spanish Smoked Paprika
14.5oz Dark Kidney Beans, Drained and Rinsed
14.5oz Black Beans, Drained and Rinsed
14.5oz Cannellini Beans, Drained and Rinsed
1. Prepare onions and carrots. I prefer to coarse chop both and then pulse 5-6 times in a food processor for a finer chop (optional).
2. Add beef broth, tomatoes, tomato paste, and chipotle peppers with sauce in a blender and puree.
3. In a large dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat and brown sirloin cubes first then the ground meat.
4. Stir in the onions, carrots, and garlic and continue cooking for about 5 minutes longer.
5. Add the beer and blended broth/tomato/chipotle mixture. Open a fresh beer for you to consume (optional).
6. Add the kidney beans, black beans, sugar, cocoa, and spices, stir to combine and turn the heat down to low. Simmer for 1 hour.
7. Add the cannellini beans. Simmer for 2-3 hours longer (longer is better).
8. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
9. Serve with shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and tortilla, chips, or sturdy bread.
Note: Three different bean types is not necessary (but worth it) - could add pinto beans instead of black beans too.
I was just popping by and going to bed now.
My best to Pri, I hope all is well.
Hey SD, how's it going??
