Chilli.

[Phaseolus]

Minimum 3 kinds of beans in all the Chili I make.
Usually ground moose / deer or elk.
And yes, must have Chili Peppers!

Interesting little side-note.
If you add a few tablespoons of Maple Syrup to the mix, you can really spike up the heat content with no undesirable effects on your tongue, throat, belly and what follows after.

Cheers

Gotta spell Chile peppers correctly too! I'm sorta a jerk about that

Better than nothing but still not cornbread in a dutch oven to go with the chili

This vote doesn’t count. Clearly Canadian.

This particular "Canadian" comes from US stock, including a Grandmother who spent very some serious time in Mexico.
She made the hottest damn enchiladas & tamales the world has ever seen. But you simply could not put them down.

I follow her recipe for chili except for the addition of the maple syrup (an accidental addition years ago).

Cheers

I am not poor and I know how to cook meats. I dont need to have pauper protein (beans) or filler in my chili.

All I see is a bunch of midwestern horseshit on this thread.

Thank you for pointing out my spelling error of midwestern. Its fixed now so everyone can be equally insulted.

Now you’ve got me craving tamales. And I can’t find those around here so I’m gonna have to learn how to make them.

How does one accidentally add maple syrup? How has that just sitting out on the counter? Also, inquiring minds want to know how much to add? You know, for science…

 

[Agross]

Chili without beans,, , is just meat sauce.

Was making Gummy Bear Smoked Salmon that day.
Left the syrup on the counter, right next to another sauce I frequently add in.
Did not realize the syrup went in instead until it was already there.
So... went with it to see.
Now I use it every single time. Lets me bring the heat up well beyond anything I did before.

Cheers

Alot of us use honey as a sweet flavor to balance the savory and spice. Also light beer or mexican beer instead of beef stock or water before simmering down.

I use 2 TBS of local-ish light honey. This year has been some Huajillo honey I bought.

 

[Tobe_B]

I’ve always used a light beer for liquid instead of stock. But something semi-sweet like a syrup or honey never crossed my mind. I’m gonna give it a try. You guys can keep your cinnamon though. I’m not going that far.

No cinnamon.

Also they have tamales in Colorado. There are mexicans there. I seen them. You are just running with the wrong crowd.

 

[mahonsr]

Sorta been said already but the best thing about chili is the cornbread - oh man! Cooked in a cast iron skillet, eat it hot! Butter and honey. Make you hurt yourself!

this 100%
Good honey is key.
Bonus points if the bees were pollinating the same plants that the protein was eating.

Finally, any hot-honey connoisseurs on the forum? My wife got me some for my birthday, and that stuff is liquid gold! I hoard my stash, and only bring it out for special occasions. It literally cured the flu a few days ago
