Greetings, the fall weather, and posts here, has kept me motivated for soups, stews, and Chili. But it’s warm enough where I am to keep smoking. So I went with both! One of my Daughters turned 5, so we had a party and the kids had cheese pizza dressed as princesses and I had smoked a good brisket for the adults to enjoy with beer…away from the kids!
Very traditional K. Salt and cracked pepper rub @ 220 with mesquite.
everyone was happy with the results!
The next day, after a few slices for breakfast, I started the Texas Style Chili, using the leftover brisket as my meat. I had also made a few gallons of beef broth a few weeks ago that was used as well….Cold leftover brisket before cubing:
The beef broth and a simmering pot of good stuff.
And a pretty amazing bowl of chili, the pot didn’t last long and I had to hide some for lunch the next day!
Nothing surprising, but for the curious
-1/4 Cup rendered bacon grease
-3ish pnds tri tip or beef
-1 large white onion chopped
-3 large jalapeño or Serrano (I left out for my wife, still plenty Spicy )
- Green or red peppers diced, I used both
-5 garlic cloves crushed
-3 tablespoons chili powder
-1 tablespoon cumin
- large can peeled tomatoes
- 4 chipotle chili’s in adobo sauce chopped
-5 cups beef broth
-Salt/pepper to taste
-Beer optional, thickener optional
If meat is s already cooked, put All the chopped stuff in B grease until onions get soft, then throw in spices until fragrant, then beef broth and chipotles and leftover brisket. Simmer2-3 hrs.
Great flavor, I love the chipotles flavor in heavy stuff like this. Thank you for your time!
