CIN CHILI



Cin Chili image

This recipe is from Cindy Wilkins, 2 time national chili cook-off winner. This is a true Texas chili, no beans....just meat and "gravy". It was featured on Throwdown with Bobby Flay. Cindy said she doesn't use fresh onions and peppers in her chili because you can't predict how hot, how flavorful, etc, the fresh ones will be. That's why she prefers to use the powders. This is great as is, but I really use it to stuff poblano peppers, stirring in lots of shredded monterey jack cheese!

Cindy's Tipsy Beef Chili image

This chili is different from any other chili we've made and it's not because of the beer and tequila. Although those are unique ingredients, the meat used in this chili is different and wonderful.
