chili attempt

[negolien]

Hey All,

I' am gonna try and Frankenstein me some chili in my crock pot lol.

2 lbs ground
1 poblano
1 jalapeno
1 bell pepper
1 red onion
1 yellow onion
3 cloves garlic
1 can red beans
1 can chili beans
1 can rotel tomatoes and green peppers
1 package McCormick chili seasoning
1 cup beef broth

parboiled the veggies and browned the meat first. only thing I am worried about is not having enough bean to meat ratio /shrug guess we'll see.

Looks good! Getting to be that time of year for a good bowl of chili! One thing if it is off, you can always add to it.

Looks tasty. Just winging it I might think another can or two of rotel would be and perhaps a spoon or two of tomato paste might kick it up a notch.

I have tried a lot of different mix's and the Busch's chili magic Texas style is my go to. Always good, can be made less spicy by adding a can of the traditional, for hot dog chili I run it thru the Nija blender, nobody knows it had beans in it lol

My wife used to work nights... she always got funny looks when she stopped and bought a case of beer on her way home at 6 am! One old guy asked if she had a bad day already! Some just don't understand it.

I have a chili recipe that I usually follow, but a lot of times I don’t have all the ingredients here & am too lazy to go to the store, so we just do substitutions, I think your ingredient list looks perfect, let us know how it turns out. I don’t think you can make a bad batch of chili!

Love chili! Wife made that last night for dinner. I grew up in Northern Indiana and the school system served chili, they always served a peanut butter sandwich " no jam" with the bowl of chili. To this day I have to have a peanut butter sandwich with my chili.

This looks great. We love chili. Just cant do beans in it. I guess that is the Texan in me. Glad y'all enjoyed it though.

 

[JLinza]

Nothin like a good chili this time of year, well done

 

[negolien]

Thanks for the replies.... I was a little lazy like I said I had already starting hitting the Canadian whiskey and soda lol . I shoulda diced up the veggies better but they were so soft didn't matter. Woulda liked it a little less soupy but I don't think the beef broth made it any more than it would been anyway. I might smoke the meat next time on the mbgf before adding when i do pork and beans I am gonna smoke the meat first the pork and beans are my next effort. Haven't started the cornj bread yet have started drinking LOL. Guess I should do those now will put up pics when done.

As a side note if anyone wants to throw a pork and beans recipe out there with canned beans. I' am too lazy to soak lol
