I don't make this often because it's expensive and labor intensive. Have to make it a couple times a year because it's SO good.

There are around 20 ingredients to this recipe. I modified it from Guy Fieri's Dragon's Breath Chili (recipe online). Here are most of them. Notice the Yuengling beer?

Gotta have some peppers, garlic and onions in chili. Whoops. Forgot a couple red peppers. I need 4 of them.

Jalapenos? Of course there are jalapenos. With seeds. Chili needs some heat.

Gotta have plenty of meat.

Roasted peppers FTW! The bacon was cooked just to get the grease.

Here's the secret that wins chili cookoffs for me. Chuck roast chopped up to put a bite of "steak" in ever spoonful.

Used my 2nd biggest pot. No dice. Had to transfer it to my biggest pot. 2-3 hours at simmer and it will be taste time.

I saw a comedy show last week and purchased a sound effect button the comedian had been using that I thought was hilarious. It plays a choir singing F**k you. I am pushing that button now. :smile:

Its legit.

Can I make a suggestion? Ive been doing this a lot in my chili and everybody seems to love it.. Add a can of drained unsalted corn..

Interesting variation. Probably get some good sweetness from the corn?

Some people add chocolate and cinnamon for similar reasons.

I'm hooked on the recipe I use but it sounds like a good idea.

I control the spiciness by adding/deleting seeds from the jalapenos. Medium heat works for me and people seem to like it. This recipe has won chili contests for me where I went up against 20 other chilis. You guys know I can be full of myself at times. The chili contest people gave my wife credit for the chili rather than admit I had beaten them. :smile:
