Chunky Chipotle Pork Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in 4 1/2- to 5-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook onions and garlic in oil 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened.
• Stir in salt, cumin, pepper and pork. Cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until pork is lightly browned.
• Stir in chipotle chili, adobo sauce and tomatoes. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pork is no longer pink in center.

Steps:

• Chop the onion. Mince the garlic. Cut the pepper into 1/2 inch chunks. Cut the pork into 3/4 inch cubes.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add onion and garlic and cook 3 minutes.
• Toss the pork cubes with the cumin and chili powder until well coated.
• Add the pork to the saucepan and cook until the pork is browned, about 3 minutes.
• Add the bell pepper, beer, picante sauce, and 1 tablespoon of the chipotle chilis. Bring the mixture to a boil. Simmer about 5 minutes or until pork is tender. Taste and add more chipotle if desired.
• Add the beans and heat through.
• Serve topped with sour cream and cilantro, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the salt and pepper to the flour in a bowl and mix. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper, then toss in the flour. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the meat to the pot and brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add the garlic and stir. Dump in the tomato sauce, chili powders, cumin and hot sauce and stir to combine. Add the beer, beans and 1 cup hot water. Allow to simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, mix together the sour cream, chipotle peppers and adobo sauce in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
• Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Serve the chili topped with the chipotle cream. Garnish with the diced red onion and cilantro.

Steps:

• Combine the chiles and adobo sauce, garlic, bay leaves, cumin, thyme, cinnamon and 5 teaspoons salt in a food processor and pulse to make a paste. Transfer to a shallow dish and add the onion, tomatoes, cilantro and 1/3 cup olive oil; mix well. Add the pork chops, turning to coat; cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Meanwhile, remove the pork chops from the marinade, scraping off the excess, and transfer to a plate. Transfer the marinade to a skillet; add 1/4 cup water and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid simmers and the onions start sizzling, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for basting. (You can also do this in a cast-iron skillet on the grill.)
• Brush the chops with olive oil and transfer to the grill. Cook until marked, 7 to 8 minutes, rotating the pork 45 degrees halfway through to create a crosshatch pattern and brushing with the liquid from the marinade. Flip and repeat, brushing with more marinade, including some pieces of onion and tomato. Remove from the grill and let rest 5 minutes.
