    I made this chili and it came out fantastic! First time making chili. My changes: I added a huge can of corn and I smoked chicken wings on my smoker and then put all the chicken in the chili mix and put back on smoker for another 3 hours. It was a chili cookoff and I won most original with LOTS of compliments!! Thank you!!

    I have used Carroll Shelby’s chili seasoning since the 80’s also. I love adding the cayenne pepper packet, i can use the whole packet, but when my grandchildren are over, i use just a pinch. It has the best spices, and as you said “ the perfect amount of seasoning, especially cumin, and that makes it taste amazing!
    It is getting the time of year we do chili, hotdogs over a fire, slaw, and for desert: roasted marshmallows. We cut sticks about 4 ft long from hardwood trees, burn the ends we sharpen to slide the hotdogs and marshmallows on, and roast them slowly. Makes great chili dogs!!!!

    My father loved to make chili. I don't know his recipe but he told me that which ever way you cook it there was his "secret ingredient" that would make any ones chili taste better. When he cooked his chili, just as it got done he would add a heaping table spoon of PEANUT BUTTER to it. PB is a legume and it adds a very faint taste of sweetness while it brings out the taste of the beans. It works great in chili with no beans also. Give it a try and you will be pleasantly surprised.

    Looks wonderful. I usually soak red beans overnight and then boil them until soft separately from the seasoned protein, veggies, and spices. I then remove the soft beans from the water to add to the tomato based stew and adjust the seasonings. I also like to add smoked paprika and cloves. Soaking the beans begins the growing process, which increases the nutritional value.

      "Peculation" *of the ingredients*. I bet this gentleman would have won even more comps if he did this ;) It's a key factor for anything that is braised / simmered, like stew, pasta sauces etc. Takes more effort in prep and lead time but yes, 100%. I'd imagine anyone that did this one would have loved it even more if they let it setup longer.

    I have a secret ingredient that I learned from patronizing Skyline Chili here in Florida; add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the pot. It's wonderful! I knew that peppers and chocolate paired well together it just never dawned in me to combine them in chili before. It adds a warmth and depth to the chili that i really miss whenever i eat chili without cocoa powder in it. I highly recommend it.

    I made this last night and I LOVED IT!! It was so easy and quick too!! I used V-8 and it was awesome! I left out the vinegar as I am not a vinegar person...at ALL! I used the whole cayenne packet in the Shelby box and had to add more, yum! I did not cook for hours but only about a half hour and it came out delightful!

      Hey, you know my secret... ;) Lea & Perrin's [in my case, their **steak sauce** ;) ] gives it a little extra kick. [Or, A-1, since local stores don't seem to carry Lea & Perrin's steak sauce anymore (though they still have their Worcestershire) for whatever reason, which is annoying...]
      I put in a bit when browning the meat and a bit after adding the spaghetti sauce [as the tomato base/stock] at the end. Yummy stuff! Adapted from an old Lea & Perrin's recipe that's lost to time, but I think it was called "meat skillet" or something. And I've evolved it over a few decades into a chili recipe of my own. But, yeah, that steak sauce kinda' makes it for me. ^_^

    I just made your recipe with a few changes, I traded kidney beans for black beans, red wine vinegar for balsamic, and one of the cans of tomatoes had peppers. I also slow cooked everything in my crock pot. I used different seasoning packets and cornstarch instead of the packet you suggested. I really love this recipe, its very different than I'm used to. My only complaint is I should've used less of the balsamic and should've cooked the meat separately to control the amount of grease, even then, it's a great chili considering I didnt follow the recipe, next time I definitely will! Thank you for sharing!!

    • @MGmirkin
      @MGmirkin ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Definitely prefer small red beans and black beans over kidney beans. IMO, kidney beans give it a kind of tougher/grittier texture I don't much care for (I used to us them, but decided I like the texture and mouth-feel of small red better than kidney beans).

    • @MGmirkin
      @MGmirkin ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Spaghetti sauce also works well. And you can get a can/jar for like a buck. As you say, it helps thin it out a bit at the end, add a little extra liquid to simmer in, and makes a nice tomato-y "base"/"stock" that incorporates the other ingredients / flavors as it simmers. [IMO, even better the next day after it's steeped overnight and all combined.]
