Had a couple of pounds of leftover steak and pork chops. Usually use Wick Fowler's 2 Alarm spice mix, but am trying Carroll Shelby's this time. Tastes pretty good in the initial stages. Added a can of black beans and a can of pintos. BACK OFF!!! This is MY damn chili and I don't care WHAT part of Texas you're from. If I want beans, I put beans, and I did, so I did. Go make your own damn chili.
It looked a bit thick, so I cut it with half a bottle of Negra Modelo (hecho en Mexico). I'm diluting me with the other half. I'll make some jalapeno cornbread later on. mm-mmm
What's for dinner at your house?

1. Chili's gotta have beans. Otherwise, it's just meat sauce. |

2. How appropriate this thread is near the "fart" thread. |

Hey, I'm from Texas and I don't mind beans in my chili. But then I wasn't born here. I do love a tasty, spicy chili. Jalapeno cornbread, too? Yum. :9

3. Tonight - New England Fish Chowder |

I made chili over the weekend and I tried something different. I had gotten some cumin seeds (from an Indian food store that sells spices cheap) and some dried red peppers.
I placed both in a hot skillet and browned and toasted them briefly. Then I put them in a coffee grinder and made my own chili powder with them.
It worked out great, I still used some of the store bought stuff, but the homemade was really good (I actually seasoned some fish with the remanent the next day).

Really intensifies the flavor/aroma, doesn't it? Miz t. does it for some of her Indian dishes and you can smell it all the way down the block.
