Viewed: 71 - Published at: 4 years agoIngredients
- 1/4 lb suet, finely chopped (render suet and discard rind)
- 6 lbs beef, extra lean, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup chili powder
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons ground oregano
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
- 4 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 2 quarts beef stock
- 1/2 cup masa harina
- 1/2 cup cold water
Method
- optional:
- can of pinto beans, rinsed
- can chopped tomatoes.
- Substitute:
- grease from 1/4 lb. bacon in place of suet.
- Add beef, pound at a time, to the grease rendered from suet and brown (or substitute bacon grease). After each pound is browned, remove.
- ( this leaves most of the grease and juice in the browning pan)
- When all meat is browned, put your meat in a chili pot and add seasonings and beef stock.
- Cover and simmer for 2 hours. Skim fat.
- Combine masa (harina) and cold water and stir into chili.
- Simmer for 30 minutes.
- NOTE: We cook this a lot longer - until the meat is fork tender and the sauce is nice and thick.
- NOTE: At this point I add rinsed pinto beans and chopped tomatoes at this point to my half of the chili.
- Serve in bowls on top of a slice of cornbread, with optional grated cheddar cheese, sour cream and green onions.
