Venison Chili Con Carne Recipes

Steps:

• First, fire roast poblano pepper, tomatoes and garlic cloves. Dice garlic, blend tomatoes, peel and slice poblanos and set aside.
• Take a Dutch oven or large skillet and add oil. Heat oil and add in the bacon. Stir in ground pork and cook on high heat for 3 to 5 minutes then add in venison. Add salt to taste, white and black pepper, chile powder, chorizo seasoning, oregano and minced garlic and stir well. Add cumin slowly to your liking. Slowly, slowly add cumin, be careful (powerful stuff). Cook this all real good and stir constantly. When the meat is cooked, add in onions, bell pepper, Anaheim chilies and celery. Deglaze your pan with a 12 ounces Lone Star Beer. Add your blended tomatoes, 2 cans of crushed tomatoes, poblano peppers, chicken stock, beans and cilantro. Let simmer and get a good taste. If you like it hotter, add Serrano peppers or jalapenos. Thicken with masa harina. Serve in a large bowl with feta cheese and fried corn tortilla strips in center. Accompany with crackers, cornbread and ice cold Lone Star.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar and saute for 2 to 3 more minutes. Then stir in the red wine, vinegar, tomato paste, chicken stock, cumin, cayenne pepper, chili powder, cilantro and salt. Simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the mixture is reduced by about half.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the bacon and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the bacon is browned. Move the bacon to one side of the skillet and add the venison to the empty side of the skillet. Season the meat with salt to taste and saute the meat for 15 minutes, or until well browned. Stir in the beans and toss all together. Transfer this mixture to the simmering pot.
• Mix everything together thoroughly and let simmer for about 20 more minutes.

Steps:

• Cube the venison steak (1/4 inch cubes); dice the onions and green peppers; mince the garlic; shred the monterey jack cheese.
• In a large pot, over medium high heat, in the vegetable oil, cook the venison cubes (a third at a time), stirring frequently until browned on all sides, removing venison to a bowl as it browns; set aside;.
• Reserve 1/2 cup diced onions for sprinkling over chili later. In the pan drippings in the large pot, over medium heat, cook the green peppers, garlic, crushed red pepper, and remaining onions until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, and adding more oil if necessary.
• Return the meat to the pot; add tomatoes with their liquid and the remaining ingredients except the shredded cheese; over high heat, heat to boiling. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour or until the venison is fork tender, stirring occasionally.
• Serve the chili in bowls and pass the shredded cheese and remaining onions to sprinkle.
• I always like to make some garlic bread and a salad to go with this. It's really good - especially when the weather is cold (and the fireplace is hot).
