This is a follow up to my earlier chili thread. After conferring with a chef from a restaurant, this is what I will do:
1) Cut meat into small pieces; dust with flour; sauté in heavy pan with canola oil
2) Add onion, garlic, peppers (to suit) and salt/pepper to taste
3) When sauté complete add to pan 1 small bottle of dark beer (do not flatten beer) and whisk to fully deglaze pan bottom until ‘gravy’ starts to form
4) Add 2 cans of “chili” beans (or kidney if preferred)
5) Add 1 can of stewed tomatoes (or Mexican style stewed tomatoes)
6) Add 2T tomato paste
7) Add spices (for me, 2T chili powder, 1T cumin, 1t smoked paprika)
8) Either cook covered at low heat for 1 hour, or, crock pot 2-3 hours
Any thoughts?
