This morning I put a pot of Texas Red(Bowl of Red)Chili on to simmer a good while for dinner this evening.


3.5 pounds of 1/2" cubed stew meat cooked and waiting to start the chili.





Chillies and first dump/batch of spices added.





Couldn't find any serrano peppers so I tossed in some shishito peppers and will put some jalapenos in later.





This will simmer for a couple of hours and I make a cornbread to go with later today.

That looks great. I made a close version of this Meat Church chili last weekend, it was the best I ever made. I like black beans and I did add them.

Alright, I let the chili simmer until the meat was nice and tender.

I whipped up a jalapeno cornbread that has diced pickled jalapeno(sweet and hot), creamed corn, cheddar cheese and finely diced onion.

Baked that in a cast iron pan with melted beef tallow.








I ended up leaving those shishito peppers in there and scratched adding jalapenos as it has a nice spicy kick after adding some Meat Church Texas Chili Seasoning. I love it!








This is a chili that is definitely one for a cold day. Even with the upper 70's here it is pretty darn good.

I’d eat it. Outside of texture, is there a benefit to using cubed meat as opposed to ground?

I ALSO made this last week. Did it outside on my smoker and used a bunch of dried guajillo peppers I had lingering in my pantry. it came out phenomenal.

That’s some fine looking chili and cornbread. Nice work.

My wife likes to make a ground beef chili with McCormick seasoning, Rotel, canned beans, etc. It’s good, but I like to make a legit chili at least once each winter. It slipped by me this year. Maybe we’ll have another cold spell.

Looks good but don’t understand the whole chilis?, I mean they won’t do anything like that. What about the stems?
