Recipe Introduction
This is an awesome recipe from an out-of-print cookbook ( The All American Chili Cookbook ).The chef has used this recipe to get out of speeding tickets.:) It is a true Chili con carne as it has no beans and no tomato products either. It does not need them. I made one change as I cannot find Italian peppers here in Idaho.
List of Ingredients
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 lbs chuck, well trimmed and cut into small cubes
2 onions, finely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
7 ounces minced green chilies (or 1 Italian pepper and 4 ounces of green chilies per the original)
5 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cayenne
8 cloves garlic
4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
3 jalapeno peppers, finely diced (optional)
Recipe
In a large chili pot (heavy bottom), heat oil and saute meat until no longer pink.
Drain off the fat and add onions, Italian peppers and chilies.
Cook over medium heat until vegetables are softened.
Stir in beer( 12 ounces ), chili powder, cayenne, garli, and cumin.
bring to a boil and simmer for 3 hours or until meat is tender, stirring occasionally and adding water.
Add salt during the last 45 mintues and adjust again before serving.
For hotter chili, add the jalapenos.
