Redskins Tailgate Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chuck and sausage into the hot pan, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease.
• Pour in the chili beans, spicy chili beans, diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Add the onion, celery, green and red bell peppers, chile peppers, bacon bits, bouillon, and beer. Season with chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, oregano, cumin, hot pepper sauce, basil, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, and sugar. Stir to blend, then cover and simmer over low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• After 2 hours, taste, and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. Remove from heat and serve, or refrigerate, and serve the next day.
• To serve, ladle into bowls, and top with corn chips and shredded Cheddar cheese.

Steps:

• Cook ground beef and pork in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 of the onion and all of the green pepper, habanero pepper, jalapeno pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir the drained meat into the onion mixture along with the green onion, chili beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, beer, and water. Sprinkle with the cornmeal, then season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Refrigerate overnight.
• Reheat the chili over medium heat until it begins to simmer again. Top individual servings of chili with cheese and remaining chopped onion.

Steps:

• The Night Before:.
• Start out by removing the skin from the Italian sausage.
• In a large skillet, begin to brown the sausage and ground beef.
• Drain the meats once browned. Remove from skillet and place in a large pot.
• In the skillet, brown the onion, pepper and mushrooms. Add garlic for the last two minutes.
• Transfer the mixture to the large pot.
• Add whole tomatoes and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Be sure to break the tomatoes up well.
• Stir in chili powder, oregano, parsley, and the hot sauce. Remove from the heat and refrigerate overnight after cooling.
• Gameday:.
• Light the burner and sit the pot of goodness over the heat.
• Add the kidney beans in and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and begin to simmer the chili.
• Now add the tomato paste and the dark beer. I use Newcastle, but Guinness, and Becks dark are both great in this recipe as well.
• Simmer uncovered until the mixture reduces to desired thickness. If it stays uncovered for an extended period of time and thickens too much just add a little more beer to loosen things back up a bit.
• Scoop into bowls and top with a few of the jalapeno slices and a sprinkle or two of cheddar.

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, start to brown beef. About half way through add onion and finish browning meat.
• Add garlic salt, chili powder, cumin, Rotel tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Stir well.
• Then add 2 cans of Jalapeno Ranch Style beans, beer, salt and pepper to taste.
• Simmer on low for 1 hour with the lid on, stir occasionally.
• Serve with cornbread and lots of cheese. :).

Steps:

• If using dried beans, sort through them to remove any small stones or debris. Place the beans in a large bowl and add water to cover. Soak overnight. Or place the beans in a large pot of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once the beans come to a boil, remove from the heat and set aside for 1 hour. Before cooking, discard any floating beans and drain. Combine the soaked beans and fresh water to cover in a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat to low. Simmer, covered, until the beans are tender, about 1 hour. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add the sausage, beef and onions. Cook, stirring often, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeno and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the chili powder, cumin, tomatoes and stock. Season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce the heat to simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 30 minutes. Add the cornmeal and reserved cooked or canned and drained black beans and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and the flavors have married, about 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper. Serve the chili with sour cream, green onions and hot sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Chop plum tomatoes. I like to use a blender or food processor but be careful not to over process.
• Drain and rinse beans and mix with corn. Set aside.
• Chop onions, garlic and green peppers. Set aside.
• Coat large covered non-stick frying pan or Dutch oven (at least 5 quarts) with oil. Add onions, garlic and peppers. Cook over medium high heat, stirring frequently, adding small amounts of water as needed to prevent sticking. (About 10 min).
• Stir in tomatoes, beans, corn, chili powder, cumin and cilantro. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• In dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat.
• Add beef and brown for two minutes.
• Add onions and garlic; saute, stirring for 1 minute.
• Add the tomato sauce, Tabasco, stock base, and paprika.
• Stir to combine well.
• Add the beer, stir again, and bring to a boil.
• Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 1/2 hours, or cover and put into 325 degree oven for the same amount of time.
• Uncover and add potatoes, oregano, pepper, chili powder, cumin, and salt.
• Stir to combine.
• Cover and cook another 45 minutes.
• Add corn, stir and cook for a final 15 minutes.
• Spoon into bowls and top with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheese.
• Serve hot.
• (I've also made this in a crock-pot, only sauteing the beef first. Add all ingredients except sour cream and cheese, and cook on low for 6-8 hours. It's still very good, but the original version has the best taste and texture.) The amounts of Tabasco and chili powder are minimums; add more to suit your taste.
• If made to recipe, the result will be spicy and flavorful; not spicy/hot.
