I am making some this week. I need to go to the supermercado for some chilis.
I just bought a couple packs of ground prime beef. I still have to get some beef of some sort for solid chunks. I usually spice the ground beef, make it into patties and griddle them to brown, then break the patties into the chili. ETA I have 4 quarts of tomato sauce from our garden. I am hoping that really jumps the flavor. |

I’m sure it tasted good. But a proper bowl of chili needs beans and a big handful of cheese melted atop it

I make a decent pork chile colorado
1. Cut up a couple pork shoulders into small cubes. 86 the connective tissue 2. Season w salt, pepper, cumin. 3. Sear in small batches 4. Sweat some sliced onion in the pan you seared the pork in. Make sure to get all the yummy brown bits 5. Add some whole garlic cloves until soft 6. Transfer the onions, garlic, and the chiles you hydrated in hot chicken stock for about an hour to a blender. 7. Purée in batches until you have the sauce 8. Add the sauce and the pork to a coverable pot (I like to use an enameled cast iron one) 9. Cook at low temp for a couple/few hours until pork is tender Serve on tortillas with some cilantro, crema, and whatever else you’d like. (just try to not gringo it up please) |

The chilies are (supposed to be) where the lion's share of the flavor (and color...) come from. There's soooo much you can do with the flavor, just by playing around with the blend of chilies you decide to use. EDIT: To answer your question, the arbols are the only "hot" ones in there. |

To be clear. I usually put beans in my chili. But I wanted this one to be about the peppers. And I knew I could not win here. I’d get crucified by the beans or the no beans side. So here we are.

(No tomatillos) Idk what kind because I don't recall any dried green ones around, but it's phenomenal and not crazy spicy either. I have a shelf full of unlabeled bags of dried peppers which I will never use myself because I have no clue wtf they are lol. |

The chili I make (and like) is the kind everyone makes fun of: hamburger, tomatoes, beans and seasonings. One of these days I want to make the non-bean chili. |

I make lots of sauces from those dried chilis. There is no other way.
You can get them cheap in the grocery store hanging in peg-hook cellophane bags. |

View Quote (I grew up eating it prepared the way Midwesterners do it, so I do still enjoy it - tomatoes, ground beef, beans and all - for nostalgic reasons ) I even make it that way on occasion, for my family. I just don't tell anyone. Or take pics, lest there be evidence. |

A secret for good chili is to add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and keep tasting/adding until it "perks" up. Sometimes you want to add more spice to take the dull note off, but that only works so far until you find it becoming gritty. Vinegar is that magic ingredient.

If i find one bean that is it for me. beans are great but they need hamhock bacon ham and salt pork not beef and damn sure no chilli powder. |
