I am heading to an annual Chili Party this Sunday and am in need of a white Chili recipe. I will be using Chicken for the meat, and it will be cooked on the egg with a very liberal coating of Dizzy Pig Jamaican Firewalk rub for flavor. I just need a good base white chili recipe. Any and all recipies will be considered and appreciated. Thanks. Seth

    This works for me. Place in dutch oven at 325 for about 2-3 hours with lid off and smoke of choice. Careful liquid does not go away.

    Well decided to do a white chili chicken today. Did a 7# Spatchcock recently and had lots of breast meat left over. So with the kind contributions from: Wardster, Lenscamp, Borders & Paula Deen here is what got cooked.


    INGREDIENTS:
    3-4 Cups Chicken or Turkey Meat, Cooked, Diced
    2 Cups Great Northern Beans
    1/2 Stick Butter
    3 Cans Chicken Broth, Low Sodium
    2-3 Pieces Bacon, Crispy Cooked, Chopped Small
    2 Cans Green Chili, Diced
    1 Can Ro*Tel, Original
    1 1/2 White Onion, Diced
    1/2 Cup Diced, Red, Yellow & Green Chili Peppers
    1-2 Tbs Cumin, ground
    1 Tsp Crushed Red Peppers, Dried
    2 Tbs Minced Garlic
    2 Tbs Indian River Rainbow Pepper
    1/2 Cup Salsa, Medium Heat.




    Procedure:
    1 Rinsed the northern beans and brought to a boil for 5 minutes. Turned off and let sit for an hour then rinsed again.
    2 Sauted onions, garlic and peppers in butter until onions are opaque. Olive oil will also work.
    3 Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil and then simmer for 1 1/2-2 hours until the beans are cooked.

    fishless,

    Tried that chili a few weeks ago and and agree 100% with your suggested changes. In fact, add more lobstah and only one cup of beans.

    Can't hate the prices for lobstah lately.

    did you go canned or dry beans, thats what i wasnt sure about with the recipe. i went canned but would like to try it dry next time. this chili made everyone happy, the chili heads and the seafood junkies in the family, it was amazing how the lobster flavor held its own.

    I used canned also. I think dry soaked beans may lend a truly different taste and, yes, the lobstah held its own for sure.

    If it wasn't a logistical nightmare to tend with I might like to do this chili at the FL eggfest. Maybe do it at the NH fest next year.

    im thinking of bringing this to the annual winni ice derby, and add the lobstah back in when it warms up. another thing that should be changed witht he recipe is that the lobster should be cooked for less time, 15 minutes for a chicken lobster is too much, its better cooked 8 to 10 minutes and have the tail and claws removed and finish up the cooking later when added back in for the last few minutes, tried adding some precooked shelled stuff from the local place and the overcooking toughened it all up, second batch i made was much better.

  • I want to thank those that responded, and hopefully by responding to this it might get moved back up front for more to see in case somebody has another recipe to offer. I like what I got, but any and all others will be welcomed. Thanks, Seth... formerly Crableg, and I wish it could be Crableg again, but I have no idea how to change it back!
