Tis The Season

My dad just throws almost any leftover in the fridge in his chilli. Makes for some interesting (and some shitty) chilli's but they are mostly good. I guess, basically if you think it might be good in a chilli, throw it in. The worst thing that can happen is you have some food for the dog or something.

My Son actually does something along the same lines.....he's put bamboo shoots in chili one time, and white hominy in chili another time. Both turned out pretty good.

I just put buckets of shit in my chilli. Doesn't really matter what kind, dog shit, goose shit, mice shit, if a floater wasn't flushed I'll net that sonofabitch out of the toliet and drop that into the pot.

It might be part of her Mexican heritage. Noodles.

This is true. Extra cheddar cheese also.

If we fed the dog failed chili, we'd have to move out for a week until the place aired out from all the dog farts.

I like to try different recipes for chili. Last year I made this one, it's called Boilermaker Tailgate Chili, and we really liked it. The only thing I left out of the ingredients was the bacon bits and I think I used about 1/2 bottle of beer instead of 1/2 cup....and I used a dark beer.

2 pounds ground chuck
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
3 (15 ounce) cans chili beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can chili beans in spicy sauce
2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with juice
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 large yellow onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2 green chile peppers, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon bacon bits
4 cubes beef bouillon
1/2 cup beer
1/4 cup chili powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™)
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon white sugar


Directions

Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chuck and sausage into the hot pan, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease.

Pour in the chili beans, spicy chili beans, diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Add the onion, celery, green and red bell peppers, chile peppers, bacon bits, bouillon, and beer. Season with chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, oregano, cumin, hot pepper sauce, basil, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, and sugar. Stir to blend, then cover and simmer over low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

After 2 hours, taste, and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. Remove from heat and serve, or refrigerate, and serve the next day.
