Drunken Chile With Homemade Chili Powder Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk paprika, oregano, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the venison, beef, and pork in the melted butter until completely browned. Add the onion and jalapeno; cook until tender. Season with chili powder, cayenne pepper, and cumin.
• Stir in the stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, garlic and beef bouillon. Pour the bourbon, beer, and water into the mixture and stir. Bring the chili to a boil; cover and reduce heat to medium-low; simmer about 1 hour, stirring frequently.

Steps:

• For the chili: Remove stems & seeds from the chiles. Fill a small pot with enough water to cover the chiles (about 2 cups) & bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add chiles. Cover & leave for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes remove chiles from pot and place into a blender or food processor. Taste the water the chiles were in & if bitter discard, otherwise add about 1/2 cup of water to blender (if bitter add fresh water). Blend until smooth (about the consistency of tomato sauce). Push the sauce through a mesh strainer into a bowl & set aside. Chop the bell peppers & onion just enough so as to fit in blender. Place into blender along with garlic and "pulse" once or twice. Drizzle oil and teaspoon of salt over beef. In a large pot lightly brown beef over high heat, working in 3 or 4 batches, placing browned beef in large bowl. After beef has browned & been removed, add one 12 ounce beer to pot and deglaze, scraping off all the brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add remaining ingredients, withholding the beans, cocoa powder, honey, brown sugar, & corn meal. Simmer, covered, 3-4 hours. Rinse beans (optional). Add beans and simmer, covered, an additional hour. Add honey, cocoa, & brown sugar. Slowly stir in corn meal until desired thickness is reached. Salt & pepper to taste. Simmer, uncovered 15-30 minutes stiring often. You may serve immediately, but, it's much better after a night of rest in the refrigerator. If it's too thick the next day, just add more beer.

After about 90 seconds turn the chiles, & bake for another 90 seconds, taking care not to burn. Remove and allow to cool. Place the toasted chiles into a blender, food processor, or spice mill & grind into a powder. Add the remaining ingredients & mix until well blended. Store in an airtight container for 6-8 months.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot. Add beef and brown and season liberally with salt and pepper. Drain off most of the grease (can't believe I just typed that). Add the onions and cook until tender. Mix the masa with a little bit of water to dissolve then add to the pot. Next add all other ingredients except the mole and bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in the mole. To really set this chili off, serve with extra sharp grated cheddar cheese and creme Mexicana sour cream.
