Best Chilli Recipe?

I can't help you if you want a true chili recipe from scratch. But if you want a quick fix that tastes good just buy the Mexene brand chili powder and use the recipe on the back. Add a little of whatever you want spice wise, onion, etc. It's not bad at all for what it is.

I wish CITWIT was still here to rip me to shreds over this

No real recipe, just a method. All measurements are guesses.

3 lbs ground meat ( hamburger, venison, chuck or a mixture)
6 T Mexine chili powder
4 T Gebhardt chili powder, or other good brands( you can add the chili powders 20 minutes apart if you wish)
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 or 3 jalapeño peppers, with seeds, minced
2 onions, very fine minced
1 Hatch chile, very fine minced
1/4 cup cilantro, vfm
2 t oregano
1T cumin
1 Hershey bar, no nuts. Most important frickin step.
1/2 cup masa or corn meal
3 cups, or more, beef stock
Salt to taste



Brown the damn meat, adding the onion in the process. Drain all but a few T of the fat. Add the peppers, spices, and seasonings. Then add the stock after a few minutes. Add the Hershey bar. Bring to a low boil, cut to a simmer and add more stock if it's too thick.

Simmer 30 minutes to an hour. Taste it. Adjust all seasonings. Make corn bread. Eat it.

That looks fantastic, and simple enough for me to give it a try. Thanks for sharing

Here's a recent thread.

Add canned pinto or kidney at the end and cook maybe ten minutes.
