I just made a pot of Chili
 

It smells so good I cannot believe it. Penzeys spices rock.
Something to calm the souls and reduce the angst among us all.

Are you annebriated?

That's all I use... and they do rock!

poop thread to follow

Thawed some deer burger for chili tonight..... I thought it was pretty good weather for it.

Try making your own chili spices. It's actually easier than you'd think, and it's very rewarding....

I need the thaw some ground venison... my chili kicks ass. It's one of three recipes I will not give out. If I never have children, on my death bed I will give it to the youngest male there.

I share a good recipe cause its just makes me think its ok for others to enjoy the good stuff.
Chili-Good Basic Stuff

2 pounds ground beef
3TB Vegetable oil
1 Medium Onion
1 Red Bell Pepper-chopped
3 Cloves Fresh Garlic-minced
½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp Cumin
½ tsp ground Chipotle pepper
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
3 Tablespoons Chili powder
3 cups water
1 26 ounce can Tomato Puree
2 16 ounce cans chopped tomatoes
2 16 ounce cans kidney beans-drained
2 teaspoons salt

Brown the beef in two batches in a big soup kettle. Drain fat and set meat aside. Sauté onions in oil for 4-5 min, don’t brown the onions. Add the bell pepper and continue to cook3-4 minutes. Then add garlic and cut heat. Add black pepper, cumin, chipotle, chili powder and red pepper flakes and stir into onion and peppers. Return to heat and add 3 cups water, tomato puree, crushed tomatoes, the juice from the tomatoes kidney beans and salt. Stir in the beef and bring pot to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 3 hours.

Chipotle peppers are available from Penzeys Spices

Sounds good. I love chipotle in chili.

As you know, I share many recipes... I'm very open with my cooking, but there are three things I just won't share. It wouldn't be special if anyone could do it.

:D

They are my venison chili, my BBQ beans and my lasagna.

My beans would kick your beans candy ass. And no I do not give that out. Come to think of it my lasagna will kick your lasagnas butt too.

So there.

:harumph:
