Carroll Shelby’s Chili Fixings (you get it at the grocery store). I let it simmer for a lot longer than it says to so the flavors really blend. Have used it for years and love the stuff.
Serve over fried rice and top with shredded cheese and crumbled taco shells. YUMMY!!
Chili is not to be served “over” anything. That is what a SAUCE is for. Real chili stands on its own.
My recipe:
3-4 lbs. chuck steak, minced by hand into 3/4" pieces
One package of Carroll Shelby's Chili Fixings
16 oz. malt liquor
1/2 cup Diet Dr Pepper
1 large green bell pepper
1 large onion
1 #10 can ground tomatoes
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 oz. ground California chile
grated bittersweet chocolate
sour cream
Brown chopped meat in peanut oil. Seed and chop bell pepper. Peel and chop onion. Saute bell pepper and onion in butter until soft.
Add to browned meat the bell pepper and onion, large packet of chili powder and packet of cayenne pepper from the CS kit, plus 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the malt liquor, Diet Dr Pepper, and can of ground tomatoes.
Cover and simmer about 2 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Serve with grated chocolate and sour cream. Best accompanied by slices of honeydew melon, homemade flaky buttermilk biscuits, and an ice-cold can of Tab.
