first, best, biggest!

I add honey to make a sweet heat.




(don't tell anyone)

I pee in it

It gives it a certain wang

If I was Hanibal,,

I'd say,

Chili with,"Fava Beans and a nice Chianti"


wheel

I often start with fresh tomatos...........seems to make a BIG difference.

Filet (which is why I rarely make it), a little cinnamon and chocolate to round out the heat...oh yeah, plenty of cayenne and other spices.

a touch of brown sugar at the end

I use a mixture of half ground beef and half stew meat, adds more flavor and gives a better texture. Then I add a can of Rotels(sp?)diced tomatoes and green chilis, to all the other stuff that is listed on my moms recipe she had written down for me.

Mines better than moms, even she says so.

I use road kill.

Pace picante sauce instead of tomato.

Ground buffalo, red onions, and black beans.

#18 No need for that. It's Summer there this time of year.

Different types of Chili powder added at different times of the cooking process

take 1 lbs of dry red chile pods, cover with water and simmer with 2 heads of garlic and salt to taste. Simmer for 20 min. put this in the blender and pure (not to fine) run it through a sive. put the left over from the sive back in the blender with a bit of the cooking water and blend again then back thru the sive. add cumin, oregano and black pepper. Now you have your sauce you can mix with beans and ground beef or brown some pork add potatos and simmer in the sauce. serve with rice and refritos. YUMMY.
