MEAT-LOVERS' VEGETARIAN CHILI



Meat-Lovers' Vegetarian Chili image

This is a thick, hearty vegetarian chili that is a hit at parties even among die-hard meat eaters. The TVP gives it the texture of ground beef, and the chiles give it a nice depth of flavor. Cook it in the slow cooker or on the stovetop. This recipe really benefits from using the best quality ingredients you can find. Also, I find this tastes best after sitting in the fridge overnight and reheating the next day. Serve with grated cheese on top.

BEEF LOVERS CHILI



Beef Lovers Chili image

This is recipe that was originally inspired by the Skyline Chili made famous in Cincinnatti and then modified to be made with stew beef instead of ground beef. My family isn't a huge fan of chili but they scarf this up every time. Don't be afraid of the syrup or cinnamon. These add only a subtle sweetness that combines great with the heat of the peppers and smokiness of the paprika and chili powder. It's those ingredients that will leave everybody asking what's in there? Serve this with a dash of sour cream and grated cheddar cheese or cornbread for a great winter meal.

It did not come from a written recipe so I don't have exact measurements.I just add what's needed until it tastes right.I usually make the pinto beans from a leftover spiral ham bone (saving the liquid from the bottom of the pan the ham was cooked in-liquid gold I call it-adding to the chili also)and have the beans for dinner one night and chili the next.there's only 3 in my family so it works out just right!

72 MARKET STREET KICK-ASS CHILI



72 Market Street Kick-Ass Chili image

If you like your chili with a kick, this meaty, spicy one has it. The recipe calls for "chili-grind" meat, a cut you can ask your butcher to grind. The restaurant uses Bass ale but feel free to use any ale you like. This is the chili that I make for pot-lucks, in part because it is requested, but also I can be pretty sure it will be consumed before the party is over. The recipe was developed by chef Leonard Schwartz at the 72 Market Street Restaurant in the Venice community of Los Angeles, California. The restaurant is no longer there but many of their recipes live on in print. For example, you can find the restaurant's meat loaf recipe in the New Basics Cookbook by Rosso and Lukins. This chili recipe was published in the Los Angeles Times.
