Home Made Chili Powder Alton Brown Recipes

Steps:

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

Steps:

• Toast the chiles and cumin seeds in a cast iron skillet for a few minutes. Don't let them cook too long and inhale the smoke, because you'll get a nasty chemical burn in lungs, nose and throat.
• let the chiles and seeds cool.
• place all the ingredients into a blender and blend on the highest speed you blender can dish out.
• store in an airtight jar.
• be sure to wash you blender carafe a few times after doing this or you fruit smoothy or margarita will taste like chiles.

Steps:

• Place the meat in a large mixing bowl and toss with the peanut oil and salt. Set aside.
• Heat a 6-quart heavy-bottomed pressure cooker over high heat until hot. Add the meat in 3 or 4 batches and brown on all sides, approximately 2 minutes per batch. Once each batch is browned, place the meat in a clean large bowl.
• Once all of the meat is browned, add the beer to the cooker to deglaze the pot.
• Scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the meat back to the pressure cooker along with the salsa, tortilla chips, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, and ground cumin and stir to combine. Lock the lid in place according to the manufacturer's instructions. When the steam begins to hiss out of the cooker, reduce the heat to low, just enough to maintain a very weak whistle. Cook for 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully release the steam. Serve immediately.
