Pools Brew Red Chili Recipe 465

Steps:

• Top steak with a ladle of Dixon red chili sauce. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and top with fried egg. The heat from the sizzling steak, warm chili sauce and egg will melt the cheese.
• Heat oil in saute pan. Stir in the flour and cook to a golden brown. Add the red chili puree and salt, and cook another 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add the broth little by little, whisking it smooth. Add enough broth to make a medium-thin red sauce.
• Place all ingredients in a blender and zap into a smooth puree. Be sure to blend long enough to completely puree the garlic. The mixture should be loose enough to pour. If necessary, add a bit more water.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, render the bacon until golden and crisp. Place on a wire rack to drain the excess grease. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
• Return the saucepan to medium heat and fry the garlic in the bacon fat until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the smoked paprika, cumin, sea salt, onions, chipotles, jalapenos and poblanos. Saute for 8 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes. Add the espresso, maple syrup, oregano and lots of pepper. Bring the chili to a simmer. Turn down the heat to medium-low and cook for 45 minutes, partially covered. Add the beans and cilantro and cook for 5 more minutes, until heated through.
• Ladle the chili into bowls and top with a generous spoonful of sour cream, the crumbled bacon and scallions.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef until evenly browned. Drain off grease, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• In a slow cooker, combine the cooked beef, kidney beans, tomatoes, celery, red bell pepper, and red wine vinegar. Season with chili powder, cumin, parsley, basil and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to distribute ingredients evenly.
• Cook on High for 6 hours, or on Low for 8 hours. Pour in the wine during the last 2 hours.

Steps:

• Melt the shortening in a large wide pot over medium heat. Working in batches, add the beef and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain, then rinse with water and return to the pot. Add the beef broth, chicken broth, tomato sauce, prunes, 10 cups water and Spice Group 1 to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Stir in Spice Group 2 and cook 15 minutes, then stir in Spice Group 3 and cook 15 more minutes. Season with salt and add Tabasco sauce to taste.
