CARROLL SHELBY'S CHILI
This recipe comes from Jane Butel's Chili Madness cookbook. I tried several of her recipes, but after I tried this one, I didn't make another, because this was SO good!! The cheese is the secret ingredient--it gives it such a smooth, rich flavor.

Steps:
- Melt suet or heat the oil in a heavy 3-quart (or larger) pot over medium-high heat.
- Remove the unrendered suet and crumble meat into the pot. Break up any lumps with a fork and cook, stirring occasionally. until meat is evenly browned.
- Add tomato sauce, beer, crushed red chile, garlic, onion, oregano, paprika, 1 teaspoons of the cumin, and salt. Stir to blend and bring to a boil.
- Lower heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour.
- Taste and adjust seasonings, adding cayenne pepper.
- Simmer uncovered 1 hour longer.
- Stir in the cheese and the remaining 1/2 teaspoons cumin.
- Simmer 1/2 hour longer, stirring often to keep cheese from burning.
- I serve the chili with sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese to garnish, and warm cornbread on the side.
- The cookbook actually called for 1/4 cup of crushed red chile pepper, but unless you have a taste for fire, use less! I use half that amount, and I really like hot food.

DAVE'S CHILI
We love to make chili together, and we usually play around with it all day, adding this and that, and it is never the same, but today's batch was exceptional so I thought I would put it here for future reference. The original recipe is supposedly from Conway Twitty that my husband obtained from an anesthesiologist he was working with at the time. Conway supposedly won a Texas chili cook-off with it. But this is our version of his great recipe that has evolved over the years. It's a little hot/spicy, but you can adjust the amount of seasonings if you want it milder. Feel free to play around with it. Hope you enjoy. Someday I'll post the original of Conway's chili recipe. NOTE: I have updated this recipe with a few changes including not draining the beans and using only 1 can of Rotel. And in the directions to add extra water as needed. I like the added flavor of not draining the beans. :)

- Remove the chili pods and any stems that may have fallen off the pods.

- Mix well and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 1 1/2-2 1/2 hours. The longer it cooks the better it gets. Add a little water as it cooks down. :).
- NOTE: If it gets too thick, just add a little water. We serve this with cheddar cheese or chopped onions on top and crackers or cornbread.
