Texas Chili
The famous Meat Church Texas Chili recipe! This hearty, meaty chili will fill up the hungriest of appetites!
Final pic (looks the same as before I guess lol). The recipe I used ended up relatively bland, but I also used store-bought chili seasoning vs. the seasoning those people sell. So maybe that was part of it. I doctored it up with some soy sauce, brown sugar, and a little extra chili powder. Served it over some buttered macaroni noodles.
Pretty good smoke flavor to it after 3.5ish hours on the Masterbuilt gravity smoker.

I think simmering it on the smoker for nearly 4 hours really helped. It cooked off some of the extra moisture from the tomatoes/etc and thickened it up.
I did this recipe, but with just 3 lbs. of 80/20 ground beef and didn't add the chipotles it calls for. I also used 2 packets of McCormick chili seasoning instead of their proprietary seasoning they sell. Plus I added the soy sauce(didn't have any W sauce), brown sugar, and a little extra chili powder.

Yeah I'd love to add sausage but my wife won't eat pork (she probably wouldn't even notice it).
Next time I want to smoke a chuck roast and add chunks of that.
When I make chili I use beef stew meat or chuck roast cut into cubes, sear the meat and let it cook down. My wife never ate chili until I started using that method. Also not as greasy one could say compared to ground beef.
My go to spices over the years has been carol Shelby chili mix.
I always do chili for Halloween, but i went a day early. I Smoked ground Bison, and Ground beef for 2 hours along with a bell pepper and half an onion. I always put one can of chick peas in the mix!
Yup that's the problem, you make so much and have even more left over.Jimbo
Man, all I know is I am done with chili for a while.
I just told Mindy freeze the balance leftover which is still a fuck ton.
Grandma's recipe handed down to my mom and now my wife. It may not look like much, but it is fucking good and every last bit gets eaten every year and everyone asks my wife for the recipe.
Made chili again. This time 1 lb ground chuck, 1 lb breakfast sausage, 1 can pinto beans, 1 can kidney beans. Thanks to the suggestion of using breakfast sausage, I really like it. I plan to always make it with half b'fast sausage meat, this was my all time favorite.
I still want to try making it with brisket but I don'ts gotz time to make a brisket... sigh
