SUPER BOWL CHILI



Super Bowl Chili image

This is the recipe I make every year for the Super Bowl, for my boyfriend and two dozen or so of his closest beer-drinking, football-watching friends. The problem with trying to find a good chili recipe is that what makes a "good" chili is a personal opinion; my idea of a great chili may be very different from yours. My chili is heavy on the meat, garlic and spice; rather rich-tasting, hearty, thick, fiery, and smoky. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, I'm also going to include plenty of advice on how to adjust it to meet your tastes. Enjoy. Notes: To cut down on fat, lean, turkey/chicken Italian sausage can be used, without affecting the flavour or texture of the final meal. Extra-lean beef can also be used.

Time 2h

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 lbs dried red kidney beans, soaked overnight, rinsed, and cooked until tender
3 lbs Italian sausage (raw, *not* the smoked kind, hot or mild, to your taste)
3 lbs ground beef (as lean as you like it)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, if necessary
3 lbs onions, chopped
1/4 cup garlic, minced (or to taste)
1/4 cup chili powder (hot or mild as per your tastes)
1/4 cup cocoa
1 tablespoon cumin
7 ounces chipotle chiles in adobo (1 small can)
2 tablespoons blackstrap molasses
6 ounces tomato paste
3 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
2 cups good-quality beef stock, divided
salt, to taste
liquid smoke, to taste
2 lbs Velveeta cheese (do not use store brand as it does not work as well) (optional)
2 cups additional beef stock
1 cup potato flakes (mashed potato mix)
fresh minced cilantro
crumbled cooked bacon
sliced green onion
shredded cheddar cheese
tortilla chips
sour cream

Steps:

  • Warning: this makes a LOT of chili. I suggest using a 12-quart stock pot.
  • In stockpot over medium heat, brown sausage or beef, stirring and breaking it up as it browns. Depending on how lean your meat and sausage are, add olive oil if the meat begins to stick.
  • When meat is browned, add onions and garlic and cook until soft. Add chili powder, cocoa, and cumin. Stir well to incorporate and cook for an additional minute.
  • Transfer chipotles to blender or food processor and puree until smooth, adding some water if necessary.
  • (Warning: if you aren't familiar with chipotles and aren't a fan of very spicy food, they are VERY HOT. If you aren't sure how much of this you would like in your chili - reserve it for now, proceed with the rest of the recipe, and then incorporate the chipotles, one teaspoon at a time, until your desired hotness level is reached).
  • Add (chipotles if you are confident you want all of them in there), molasses, tomato paste, ONE can of crushed tomatoes, and ONE cup of the beef stock. Bring to boil, stirrng well to prevent from sticking to bottom of pot.
  • Taste your chili so far. Add salt and liquid smoke to taste - it's a big pot, so you may need to add what seems like a LOT of salt to get it to taste right. A little goes a long way with the liquid smoke.
  • Depending on how soupy or tomatoey you like your chili - you may or may not wish to add more stock or more tomatoes.
  • The Velveeta may seem like an odd ingredient to add to chili - but it adds a creaminess that makes it all come together. If you're not sure you'll enjoy it - remove about a cup of chili to a much smaller pot, add an ounce of Velveeta and cook, stirring, to melt. Taste it - and compare it to the big pot to see which you like better.
  • If you like it - cube the Velveeta and add, stirring well to melt and incorporate into the chili.
  • If you have left the chipotles aside until now, and want to add a bit of zing - add them, one teaspoon or so at a time, stirring well to incorporate after each addition.
  • If you overshoot and it's spicier than you wanted - the potato flakes can soak up a lot of the spice, and you can add them a little at a time.

CHEF DAD'S SUPER BOWL CHILI RECIPE - (4/5)



Chef Dad's Super Bowl Chili Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by รก-48714

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds Ground Beef, 85-90% lean
2 15 oz cans Pinto beans, drained
1 yellow onion, finely diced
3 Tablespoons diced garllic, appx 7-8 cloves
2 15 oz cans Tomato sauce
1 15 oz can tomatoes, diced or crushed
1 15 oz can beef broth
1/2 Cup Ketchup
1 Teaspoon Hot Sauce
1 Tablespoon Kosher salt
1 Tablespoon Chili powder
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Sugar
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Butter
1 Bag Frito's Corn Chips, crushed

Steps:

  • 1) Combine spices (salt, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, sugar) in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside. 2) Heat large Dutch Oven (or large lidded pot) over medium heat. When hot, add ollive oil and butter, then onion and garlic. Saut'e with 1 teaspoon of your spice blend for 3-4 minutes. 3) Add ground beef plus one tablespoon of your spice blend until meat is fully cooked. Do not drain any juices off. 4) Add tomato sauce, crushed tomatois, beef broth, ketchup, hot sauce and drained beans. Add all of your remaining spice blend then stir well and bring up to a simmer. Once it starts simmering, reduce heat to low and simmer with the lid on for 30 minutes. Taste for seasoning adjustment. I usually add a bit more salt and pepper, but not too much. This recipe makes about 16 small or 8 large servings. Serve in bowl with hand crushed Frito's over the top. Cooks Note When it comes to choosing your canned tomato products, I like the taste of the organic brands much better. Don't try to make seasoning adjustments until after all ingredients have simmered and concentrated for the first 30 minutes. It takes them a white to come together. If making this the day before, let the chili cool down with the lid on for about 30-45 minutes before putting in your fridge. When ready, slowly reheat the chili over low heat then move into your crock pot on the low temp setting. Have some hot sauce, diced jalapeno, diced onion and shredded cheddar cheese available for your guests to serve themselves.

SUPER BOWL CHILI



Super Bowl Chili image

I found this recipe on another site and fixed it and absolutely loved it. This rich, spicy chili has a kick to it though. I don't add quite as much brown sugar as it calls for.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 onions, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb ground beef
3/4 lb beef sirloin, cubed
1 (14 1/2 ounce) diced tomatoes with juice
1 (12 fluid ounce) dark beer
1 cup strong brewed coffee
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (14 ounce) can beef broth
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
3 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon cumin seed
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon salt
4 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
4 fresh hot chili peppers, seeded and chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onions, garlic, ground beef and cubed sirloin in oil for 10 minutes, or until the meat is well browned and the onions are tender.
  • Mix in the diced tomatoes with juice, dark beer, coffee, tomato paste and beef broth. Season with brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, cocoa powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, coriander and salt.
  • Stir in 2 cans of the beans and hot chile peppers. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
  • Stir in the 2 remaining cans of beans, and simmer for another 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans: Different beans offer different textures and flavors, so using a combination of them will create a more complex and flavorful chili. Popular choices include kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and white beans.
  • Don't skimp on the spices: Chili is all about the spices, so don't be afraid to add a generous amount. Common spices used in chili include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. You can also add other spices to taste, such as oregano, thyme, or chipotle powder.
  • Brown the meat before adding it to the chili: Browning the meat will help to develop its flavor and add a richer color to the chili. You can brown the meat in a skillet over medium heat, or you can use a slow cooker to brown the meat on low heat for several hours.
  • Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the chili will help to develop the flavors and allow the spices to meld together. You can simmer the chili on the stovetop over low heat, or you can use a slow cooker to simmer the chili on low heat for several hours.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: There are many different toppings that you can serve with chili, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, diced onions, cilantro, and avocado. You can also serve chili with cornbread, crackers, or tortilla chips.

Conclusion:

Chili is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great meal to serve at parties or gatherings, and it's also a great way to use up leftover meat and vegetables. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a chili recipe that everyone will love.

Here are some additional tips for making the best chili:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. The meat and vegetables should be able to swim in the liquid.
  • Don't boil the chili. Simmer it gently over low heat to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Taste the chili as it simmers and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Let the chili rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even more.
