MEATY THICK MAN CHILI

Contrary to the title, it doesn't have men in it. However it is a man's best friend, it's thick, not as tomato-ey as most chili's. Best served with fresh bread.

This chili is so easy to make and is so good! Trust me. To make a double batch, double everything except the meat and onion. Use 1 can each of pinto and kidney beans, that is how I normally make it.

MANLY CHILI



Manly Chili image

I got the original recipe from Rachael Ray. I made a few changes based on how I cook. I usually double this for our large family, but do not double the broth. We like to use a honey beer also. My husband likes his chili real spicy and the children do not, so the optional Tabasco sauce is there. I just put in 2 glugs of the BBQ sauce, I do not measure much of this recipe!

SIX-PACK CHILI



Six-Pack Chili image

Kit Carson's last words were, "I wish I had time for one more bowl of chili." He had the right idea - you shouldn't take anything too seriously, except maybe chili. Chili was given to us by the gods especially to go with good music, good friends, good beer, and good times. If this recipe doesn't do that for you, then you don't have a pulse.

Provided by Food Network

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 6-pack of Corona beer, chilled
2 1/2 lb tri-tip roast, cut into 1/2" cubes
2 1/2 lb ground chuck
1/2 tablespoons dried mexican oregano
7 tablespoons Gephart's chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon paprika
2 large Vidalia onions, diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, diced (about 4-5)
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 4-oz can diced green chiles
15-oz can crushed tomatoes
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Masa Harina
Salt and pepper to taste
Sour cream
Your favorite salsa

Steps:

  • 1. Drink a beer and read the directions.
  • 2. In a large Dutch oven brown the beef with 2 TBL chili powder. Drain the fat, but don't go overboard cause there's lots of flavor in there. Add two beers, the rest of the chili powder, oregano, cumin, paprika and get it to start to boil. Simmer for an hour.
  • 3. Have a beer to reward yourself for all that hard work.
  • 4. Heat up a skillet and caramelize the onions. During the last couple of minutes, add the garlic and saute. Add onion and garlic to the chili along with chipotles, jalapeno, green chiles, red bell pepper, and tomatos. Simmer another 1-2 hours.
  • 5. You'll want another beer here. Make sure your friends have put on some kickin tunes.
  • 6. Add sugar and vinegar. Whisk together equal parts of Masa Harina and cold water (I use about 1/3 cup each). Bring to a boil and stir until it thickens. Season to taste.
  • 7. Ladle into bowls, top with sour cream and salsa. Serve hot sauce on the side. 8. Open your final beer and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Try not to get a swelled head from all the compliments.

TABLE TALK: EASY ENTERTAINING THE MANLY CHILI BAR

Steps:

  • When you have guests around, and want to entertain, feed and not be stuck in the kitchen, a chili bar is a great way to do it! A chili bar is great for football game watching, for family get togethers, for tailgating and pleases both men and women. One positive about chili bars is that chili can be relatively inexpensive, and it feeds a lot of people. It is not necessary to keep many things warm at one time, and can be cooked in a slowcooker, which keeps the house cool during the summer. Chili can also easily be served over buns, bread, and over hot dogs. Here are some tips to make your Chili bar successful. Start with the base; the chili of course. There are a surprisingly many options when it comes to chili. You don't have to choose just one either. Types vary from vegetarian options, beany or beanless, meaty with chicken or beef, or even bear, thin or thick, red bean or white bean?. You pick! Figure out how you are going to keep the chili warm. Options could be slow cooker, stovetop, or even in a Dutch oven or on a grill pan. Some of these options will allow you to cook the chili with the same method, or you can cook it before hand and just warm it for serving (this method is great if you are planning the chili bar during a camping excursion or some other event when you won't have time to be in the kitchen, just freeze it in a zipper bag and load it into a cooler). How will you serve the chili? Popular options are bread bowls, over hotdogs, over hamburger buns, with cornbread, or just in mugs or bowls. I love a good walking Chili...continue reading to learn how to do this! Toppings for chili are pretty much my favorite part, and are endless. Most popular options are: Shredded cheddar cheese Shredded Jack cheese Chopped onion Minced green onion Sour Cream Diced tomato Crumbled Bacon Saltine Crackers Corn chips Soup crackers/also called oyster crackers Tater tots Hot sauce Cilantro Chopped avocado Salsa Nacho Cheese Cubed polenta Chopped black olive Scoopable tortilla chips Diced chilis Some additional ideas that you may have not thought of, which are not only yummy but can be conversation starters: Shaved or chopped bittersweet chocolate (this is actually used quite often as a chili ingredient). Corn nuts Crumbled Corn bread Fancier cheeses, such as gruyere, goat, queso fresco, or manchego cheese Thinly sliced tortillas Diced mango Lime wedges Chow mein noodle There really are tons of options! Don't forget to have some milk on hand for those people who try to outdo another with spice (you KNOW this happens when you get a bunch of guys together!) and for a funny, and possibly necessary "topping" have a bowl of antacids nearby. Here is a simple, easy to transport idea that we call Walking Chili, it really is a great way to serve Chili when camping or tailgating, and the clean up does itself!
