Best 2 Chris Chili Recipes

CHRIS'S PUEBLO GREEN CHILI SAUCE

Steps:

• In large stainless kettle, brown pork in bacon fat or vegetable oil.
• (bacon fat has better flavor.) Cook on medium heat till meat is slightly pink.
• Add diced onion and garlic, cook till soft.
• Add flour and stir, browning flour as you would a roux (rue).
• Add some of your water if flour is too thick, keep stirring till it bubbles.
• Add chicken broth.
• Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a bubble, then turn heat to low.
• Cook uncovered for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
• If your chile is too thin, add more flour.
• If your chile is too thick, add more chicken broth.
• Taste often and add more spices or peppers to your liking!
• If you do not like chunks of tomato or peppers, place the RoTel, tomatoes and canned diced green chile's into a blender and puree them!
• (This is the way I like my sauce. I only add the Pueblo or Poblano peppers whole to my chile).

CHRIS' CHILI

Steps:

• Prepare soup from a packet of onion soup mix according to the package directions, and set 1 1/2 cups aside.
• Place bacon grease into a large stainless steel soup pot over medium-high heat, and cook and stir the cubed round and sirloin steak meat in the bacon fat until well browned, about 10 minutes. Pour in the reserved onion soup, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 7 minutes, stirring to dissolve any browned flavor bits from the pot.
• Stir in salt, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, kidney beans, tomato paste, and tomato sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently to avoid burning the bottom, then cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cocoa powder, cola, and hot sauce, and simmer for 20 more minutes. Serve hot.
