Chili in Chile, when it's chilly.

I like chili (typically red, and beef). And I like chile (typically green, and pork).

I think the OP was asking about chili, but typed chile?

Are there tomatillos in chili? How about in chile?

I say no to chili, but maybe to chile.

Not sure about chile in Chile when it is chilly.

Is this your Skeeter recipe?

Skeeter Skelton recipe

5 pounds beef cut into 1 inch cubes
3 28-ounce cans of tomato sauce
3 crushed garlic cloves (or equivalent powder)
6 Tablespoons hot ground chili powder (more to taste)
6 or 8 small whole red jalapeno peppers
1/2 cup of brown sugar (I prefer dark brown)
4 large onions sliced thin
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste

Mix all ingredients in a large pot. Add water to cover (or add one can of beer before adding the water - the medium dark works best). Bring to a boil, then lower heat to simmer. As water cooks down, replenish. Cook 4-6 hours, until meat begins to break up and other ingredients form a thick gravy.

DON'T ADD BEANS. If you want beans with your chili, heat a can of refried beans with some finely chopped onions and serve on the side.

This recipe is better after sitting in the refrigerator a couple of days and freezes very well.

Mick:

That's the one.

How many gallons does that make?

Looks like a pretty good sized batch for a 2 member family, 2.5 quarts of tomato sauce and 5 pounds of meat. Good thing it freezes will.

Blister them, peel and put slabs of chili on my burgers, and with wild duck in my tamales, stuff them with cheese batter and fry, in scrambled eggs. I eat a lot of chilis, almost every day both Anaheim and Poblanos.

Oh my.

If you blister your chili over an open flame it will leave the meat crisp, nicer for garnishes.

Fresh tamales with a slab of chili and fried egg make a great breakfast.

Knocked it outta da park !

Pork chile is good stuff. My wife likes it with tomatillos, but she's from CO. My friend from NM says no tomatillos.

Pueblo vs. Hatch? I don't have a dog in that fight and would like to checkout both places during the roasting season.

PS - for chili, I prefer beef.
