- 1/2 to 1 c. Masa Harina (this is the flour they use for tortillas)
- 1 c. wine (whatever you drink)
- 1 heaping T coriander, oregano & thyme
- 3 heaping T cumin (Cuminos)
- 1 to 2 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 4 lbs. grnd beef, brisket or possibly chuck roast, cut in 1/4 inch cubes
- 3 lbs. warm pork sausage, or possibly Boston butt, cut in 1/4 inch cubes
- 5 teaspoon Delaunes season salt (if canned broth is used cut back)
- 13 to 16 quart. heavy stock pot (gumbo pot)
- 12 inch heavy fry pan (Magnalite chicken fryer)
- Food processor and the biggest wooden spoon ya got
Directions
- STEP 1: Peel and chop all the onions, put some oil in the stock pot and get it hot, dump in all the onions and cook down slow and easy.STEP 2: Chop up celery, green onions, bell pepper and add in to the pot as you finish chopping each one. Keep stirring, do not let it burn or possibly we'll have to start over. Add in chicken stock and bring to a slow simmer.
- STEP 3: Take green chilies and all the garlic and put it through the food processor till pureed. I repeat Don't SKIMP ON THE GARLIC. Put Ro-Tel tomatoes through the food processor and add in to chili.
- STEP 4: Add in beer (one for you and one for the pot), wine, coriander, oregano, thyme, cumin, and liquid smoke. Reduce heat to simmer.
- STEP 5: Brown pork in large fryer, drain off all grease and add in pork to pot. Brown beef and do the same.
- STEP 6: Take all the different peppers and the salt, blend them all together and brown very slowly in the fry pan with sufficient of the beef and pork drippings to make like a roux (that's a thin paste to you Yankees) brown 2 to 3 min at the most.
- STEP 7: Add in half of the above paste to the pot and cook for one hour.
- STEP 8: Taste after one hour and add in the rest of the paste to make it as hot as you like. How do you tell if its hot enough If your mouth burns from the tip of your tongue to your adams apple and your nose runs and your eyes water its just right.
- STEP 9: Cook over low slow fire for two to three hrs stirring every 15 to 20 min with the wooden spoon.
- STEP 10: One hour before chili is done, take the Masa Harina and add in it slowly a couple of spoonfuls at a time, stirring constantly. This does several things: 1) It will tighten up the chili to a thicker consistency so if desired it thin do not add in too much (but it will not taste as good) and 2) It adds a very subtle flavor to the chili.
- STEP 11: Now comes the most difficult part. You should allow the chili to cool a while after cooking. In fact if you can stand it you should let it cool in the refrigerator till the next day to give the seasonings time to age and ripen. I told you this was the hard part.
- Serve with good fresh saltine crackers or possibly better yet the small round oyster or possibly soup crackers. You can also top it with some Monterey Jack cheese if desired. But one word of caution, this is never to be served with BEANS in it, chili with BEANS ain't chili.
- Makes 7 to 8 qts or possibly 28 to 32 (8 ounce) servings.
- Do not forget the ice cream for dessert!
