Posts: 704
Friend is having a chili cookoff at work and she wants me to make it on the egg for her. Not a big chili maker so I need an winning chili recipe that can earn her first place. Would like to get a couple so I can do a test run before hand. Cookoff is Oct 3.
Thanks,

Tried and true...this is a great recipe.

Hey Fidel
I think you forgot to attach the recipe -
I was referring to egret's chili.
-
Ok, I was kind of figuring that. But you never know. So I take it that his chili is as good as all the bread he makes.
-
I've never had his bread, but his chili is good. I've had it when he made it last year in October and have made it a half dozen times myself.
Good stuff. I've tinkered with the recipe a bit myself, for personal preferences, but his recipe is very good as it is. I like mine a bit hotter. -
Haven't tried this one yet (up on my to do list as first chili of the season), but it was given to me by RichardFl and none of his recipes have ever failed me... egrets and RRP's are both awesome as well..so now at least you have a few choices

2 10 Ozs Rotel, Original
4 14 1/2 Ozs Tomatoes, Crushed
1 14 1/2 Ozs Stewed Tomatoes
3 Cups Tomatoe Juice
2 4 1/2 Ozs Can Green Chilis, Chopped

Salt/Pepper to taste
1/2 Stick Butter
Procedure:
1 Cook the meat in a pot on the stove for about 2 1/2-3 hours. Turn off and when cool, drain the liquid--save some for the stock, and degrease it, separate the meat from the bones and fat. yielded about 6 cups of meat.
2 BGE 300°F-325°F, indirect, plate setter legs up, spacers under the DO, no top. I prefer to sauté the veggies on the stove, but the egg will work also. 2-3 pieces of apple wood for smoke flavor.
3 In heavy 9 quart Dutch Oven, saute onions, celery, garlic, add tomatoes, liquids, spices. Cook on simmer for 3 hours. Stir about every 30 minutes so it does not stick.
4 After 2 1/2-3 hours, add cilantro, pre-cooked pork, beans w/liquid. Cook 2 more hours., may need to add some more tomato juice if it starts to get dry. Add 1/2 stick butter at end for texture.Serve or reheat second day for better flavor. Freezes well.
Yield: 9 Quarts
Preparation time: 45 minutes
Cooking time: 5 hours

Hey Mickey sounds good. What day could you bring a bag by. Plus you have to promise that I won't be leaving in a new vehicle. :laugh: :laugh:

No promise on the vehicle

I can pick it up on my way home. Will be at location if you will still be there, which should be about 4:45.

Thought I'd mention that we are having a chili party on Nov. 1st. All are invited. It's the best way to try a bunch of different types of Chili. Just south of Atlanta!
