    I am a big fan of chili. I like it with no beans, just meat, lots of garlic, onion and cumin . . . topped with cheese and fresh chopped onion.

    Who has a killer chili recipe?

    I won a chili cook off once.

    I love chili!!!

    I always make it different,

    but the one I won was pork roast mairinated in beer for two days, red kidney beans soaked and then added to the browned cubed marinated pork. Alot of green chopped ortega chilis and tamatillos and alot of red hot chili peppers, and alot of other spices. I don't cook with recipes, just taste and add as I go.

    I served it with tortillas instead of corn bread.

    But a good beefy chili with cornbread is the best.

    Now I am hungry...thanks Corvin.

    Of the low carbohydrate class............

    >Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili

    >Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.

    >Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding

    I don't know anyone who follows a chili RECIPE. It's sort of a thing like "no gas grills" so "no recipes needed" I guess its supposed to be genetic???

    Frannie, Great story...now how do I copy that for our local paper??

    Corvin, it's your fault for starting this thread!

    >Chili Contest Story

    Gawd, Frannie, I laughed so hard I farted, blew the gulp of coffee all over the computer, and blurred my glasses!

    It's a keeper.

    Like good, not hot, but flavorful chile. Best made with Chipotle chilis. Chipotle brings in a nice smokiness. Beans or no beans, doesn't matter. Can't seem to get good corn tortillas N of the border, so I do southern cornbread. Of course topped with cheese and onion. Top with sour cream it too hot.

    Hugs

    Hey Brenda...the next time you make chilli leave enough room on top to pour on your cornbread batter...Bake in oven till the top is as brown as you like it....super good..
