i use ground beef...recipe is mom’s...beans are a filler...i’ll think about the coffee
It’s not really chocolate, it’s cocoa powder.
>Beans are okay, but.....................
You did go to boy scout summer camp did you not?
I prefer my chili without beans.
And everybody elses, too!..................😉
like the dark unsweetened
It wasn’t me. :)
Yes.
No beans.
Add dark beer, chocolate, honey and enough hot peppers to sting at first taste, then the sweet hits followed by the hint of chocolate.
I’ve not used coffee in chili but I use it in various gravies. Adds color, subtle flavor.
You should see what they do in Cincinnati. They serve the worst tasting chili you’ve ever had on top of spaghetti. Nasty stuff there. But there are lots of people who apparently think it tastes pretty good.
I do not use beans in my chili, however I do add the juice from a can of beans. I smoke the tomatoes first before adding them to the recipe. I also use a bit of chipotle peppers for heat and more smokiness. With the onions, I caramelize them first, then grind them up with the spices. Then I put the meat in, then the tomatoes and peppers.
Works for me.
Now I’m hungry.
The Office’s Brian Baumgartner’s Chili recipe book is great!
Grape jelly, ketchup? What is wrong with thos areas?
What next, pickled herring for a NYC chili?
“They serve the worst tasting chili you’ve ever had on top of spaghetti.”
My ex was from south Jersey. They ate stewed tomatoes on top of mashed potatoes. bleeech!
Haha! Good one. I grew up in Cincinnatti and was taught by my dad to use Hershey’s chocolate (solid or syrup) when making Cincy style chili. I’ve tried it without but always go back.
no damn beans! you may serve beans on the side
I have won tx chili cookoffs
My ex-mo-in-law won a chili cook off and it was made with ground turkey. Not sure of the detail, if they knew it was turkey or if it was a special class for turkey etc. I’ve eaten it and it was good. She’s a good cook in general.
The ex-wife never caught on. Her style of cooking is grab a box from the freezer and nuke the contents. Her eating preference is Burger King, whopper.
Onions and chili? Onions go on top when making a Coney Island style hot dog.
