DAD'S CHILI



Dad's Chili image

I am not a big lover of chili but growing up I always loved my Dad's chili. I didn't have the recipe when he died and after lots of digging in my memories and trial and errors I finally figured it out. It's a 'sweet' chili rather than a spicy one but could very easily be spiced up. It always gets rave reviews whenever I make it. I use a packet of McCormick's Original Chili Seasoning for seasoning and it's awesome!

CHILI

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h40m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds ground beef (85-percent lean)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 medium onion, small diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 large carrot, small diced (about 3/4 cup)
1 red bell pepper, small diced (about 1 cup)
3 cloves garlic, minced
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
Two 14.5-ounce cans diced fire-roasted tomatoes
One 14-ounce can black beans
One 14-ounce can garbanzo beans
One 14-ounce can pinto beans
2 1/2 tablespoons taco seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ancho chile powder
One 32-ounce box mushroom stock
16 ounces dark beer, left open for a little while
1 whole dried ancho chile
1 cup frozen edamame
1 ear corn, kernels removed (about 3/4 cup)
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons liquid smoke
Freshly ground black pepper
Chai Spiced Grits, recipe follows, for serving
Greek yogurt, for garnish
Fresh cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 chai tea bags
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup grits (not instant), such as Weisenberger
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon lemon zest

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the salt and saute until just browned with a little pink left, about 5 minutes. Remove the meat to a plate and set aside.
  • To the same pan, add the onions and another teaspoon of the salt and saute until just translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the carrots and red peppers and saute 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute.
  • Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the diced tomatoes and beans, mixing well. Stir in the taco seasoning and ancho chile powder and mix well. Add the beef back into the pot, pour in the mushroom stock and beer and bring to a simmer. Add the ancho chile--it will be large, but don't worry about this; after the chili is finished, you will remove it. Lower the heat to low and simmer for 2 hours. The longer this cooks the better it tastes.
  • Add the edamame and corn and cook an additional 10 minutes. Stir in the peanut butter and liquid smoke. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and season with pepper. Fish out the ancho chile and discard.
  • Serve the chili over the Chai Spiced Grits and garnish with Greek yogurt and cilantro sprigs.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper and the tea bags and steep for 10 minutes. Remove and discard the tea bags. Add the cinnamon and stir to combine.
  • Bring the chai mixture back to a boil and sprinkle the grits over it slowly, to prevent clumping. Cook, uncovered and stirring constantly to prevent sticking, until the grits are soft and have a creamy texture, 25 to 35 minutes. (If the grits get too dry, add up to 2 cups warm water during cooking.) Remove from the heat and stir in the cream and lemon zest. Season with more salt and pepper, if necessary.

Time 2h30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons bacon drippings
2 large onions, chopped
8 pounds beef stew meat, or coarse ground chili beef
5 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 tablespoons ground red chile pepper
4 tablespoons mild chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
¼ cup sweet Hungarian paprika
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
3 (10 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
3 cups water
2 tablespoons salt
¼ cup dried parsley
1 fresh jalapeno peppers
1 cup masa harina flour

Steps:

  • Melt the bacon drippings in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are translucent.
  • Combine the beef with the garlic, ground chile, chili powder and cumin. Add this meat-and-spices to the onions in the pot. Break up any meat that sticks together as you cook, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes, until meat is evenly browned (very browned, not just gray). Sprinkle in Hungarian paprika and oregano.
  • Pour in the tomato sauce, tomato paste, water, salt, parsley and jalapeno. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour. NOTE: True Texans DO NOT add beans to their chili, but my husband loves them, so this is the point where you can add as many cans of drained and rinsed pinto beans as you wish (I add 2 cans, but shhhhhh don't tell my Daddy!!!).
  • During cooking you may squeeze the jalapeno as it softens against the sides of the pot to release more heat if desired.
  • Mix in the masa harina, and cook while stirring for 30 minutes longer, or until desired consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust seasonings.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Good choices include kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and Great Northern beans.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of meat. Ground beef is the classic choice, but you can also use ground turkey, chicken, or even lamb. If you're using a leaner meat, you may want to add some extra fat, such as olive oil or bacon grease, to the pot.
  • Sauté your vegetables before adding them to the chili. This will help them to caramelize and develop a richer flavor. Common vegetables used in chili include onions, peppers, and celery.
  • Use a good quality chili powder. This is the key to a flavorful chili. Look for a chili powder that is made with a variety of chili peppers and spices. You can also make your own chili powder by grinding dried chili peppers in a spice grinder.
  • Let your chili simmer for a long time. The longer you simmer it, the better the flavors will develop. Aim for at least 2 hours, but 3 or 4 hours is even better.
  • Serve your chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro.

Conclusion:

Chili is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold day. It's also a very versatile dish, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. Whether you like it mild, medium, or hot, there's a chili recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy meal, give chili a try. You won't be disappointed.
