What is your favorite Chili recipe?
-
I can make chili almost anytime of the year, but I prefer, to make it in the Fall/Winter time. For me, it is the perfect comfort food. I like to try different recipes. I haven't decided what recipe I will use for my first batch this year. I know the internet has an endless supply, and imagination is half the fun, but I would be interested to see some of your recipes.
- Diced meat (often pork)
- Minced meat (often pork)
- Beans (small cans, two different types)
- Union, garlic
- Pineapple
- Anything that adds heat (sriracha sauce makes that easy)
No fancy herbs but just basic beans, meat and heat.

put stuff in pot. add more stuff until it tastes right. but i usually use stew beef, and i usually add a few dried chiles, and i usually add a tiny pinch of cinnamon and a bit of dark chocolate (not enough so you can spot them, but they make a nice background for the heat)

I see this a lot, now. I will have to try this.

I don't use recipes, or write them down. Sorry about that, Chief.

I go this route, quite frequently myself. I know what the basics are, and using my imagination at the time, usually pay off with a good bowl or two...or three. :thumbsup:

My dad used to make his chili and green chile stew with a good pork.

If you make it right, "comfort" isn't really the appropriate word.

Isn't it a bit passe to imply that the unions stink?

Besides the usual ingredients (beans, hamburger meat, spices, onions, etc.), we like to add the following toppings: grated cheddar cheese, sour cream, onions (yes, double onions: cooked and raw), AND...wait for it: SPANISH PEANUTS!

I posted mine a couple of years ago on Instructables. http://www.instructables.com/id/Three-Day-Wheat-Chili/

I use all the ingredients you have mentioned at some point, but I have not tried the peanuts...spanish peanuts!! Very interesting. I have tried Spanish olives, which imparts a unique flavor as well.

Add a dash of Worcestershire sauce and just a pinch of liquorice powder to that. And be really careful with that liquorice powder.

I hadn't heard this before, so I have to ask: what does liquorice powder do in a chili recipe? TIA, RJ
Hard to explain taste, but it adds a different bite. just be careful to not add to much, then you destroy the chili.

If you have no Spanish Peanuts, Virginia Peanuts will do in a pinch (but use more than a pinch).

Here is a great one from Bob Pease who was an analog engineering legend, and wrote columns exclusively for Electronic Design magazine until his death in 2011. Bob obtained a BSEE from MIT in 1961 and was a staff scientist at National Semiconductor Corp., Santa Clara, CA, for many years. He had a sense of humour and knew a bit about chilli too. This recipe was seriously published in an electronic design magazine a few years ago. What's all this recipe engineering stuff, anyhow? http://electronicdesign.com/archive/whats-all-recipe-engineering-stuff-anyhow Robert A. Pease / Engineer
