OP Mannlicher Campfire Kahuna Joined: Nov 2003 Posts: 67,693 N. Central Florida, and Miami	I am still expanding my selection of cast iron. Found a 12 inch, 8 Qt Dutch Oven at a good price, and recently added a cast iron griddle. Camping season is upon us. I'm ready. Next week, I have 4 days on the river up in Georgia. Will be making my 'no beans, no tomato' chili for a crowd of hungry paddlers. Sam......

The chili has the same deep red color, and smokey/hot flavor that the recipe for Enchilada sauce gives. Quote Chili. No beans, no tomatoes Two pounds NY Strip Steak, cut into 1/2 inch cubes, lightly salted (Venison works fine ) Two tablespoons lard 2 cups beef broth Two fresh Poblano peppers 8 fresh red chili peppers 4 dried Chili Mulato peppers 4 dried Guajillo peppers 10 dried Chile Arbol 4 dried California peppers (Anaheim) 1 medium white onion, fine diced 4 cloves garlic, fine diced 1 teaspoon Penzy's ground Cumin 2 teaspoon Penzy's medium chili powder 2 teaspoon Penzy's Mexican Oregano 1/4 cup masa harina corn flour Using a cast iron pot, melt the lard over medium high heat. Add in the cubed beef, and sear on one side only. Remove from the heat, add in the diced garlic and onion, and the beef broth. Place in a 225F oven for two hours, stirring once or twice. Remove from the oven, and place the pot on a low heat burner. Add in the rest of the ingredients, stir well, and simmer for another hour. The dried peppers should be seeded, and cut into large pieces. Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle, and place the peppers on it. Heat on high for a minute or two per side, but do NOT BURN the peppers. Use no oil. Place the peppers in a bowl, and cover with boiling water. Let sit for 20 or so minutes. Place the peppers and the water into a blender. Pulse several times. Do not reduce to a puree. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pepper pieces from the liquid, and add to the chili. Add the liquid as needed to the chili, to make sure the chili does not dry out when cooking. Mix some of the liquid from the chili into the masa harina. Add this back to the chili until you get the consistency you want. Last edited by Mannlicher; 10/09/16. Sam......

Why NY strips? when I first did the recipe, the strips were on deep discount sale. They worked good, so I stuck with it. Venison works well too, as I am sure Elk, Moose or whatever would. Sam......

Adds a little color and the CI works well on my POS glass cook top for simmering soups, stews and of course chili. Have a #12 & #14 Lodge DO as well but haven't been cooking or camping up by the pond lately.
