Raining and breezy outside. Finally, scrub the smoke scud out of the air. Got a big pot of chili simmering on the stove making the place smell nice. Life is good.

Don't forget to add a big bowl of freshly cooked pinto beans in it to make it authentic chili!

L.W.

Heretic

Did someone give some of that to Jerry Nadler earlier today?😳

Pics man....

And, we're off!! Beans in chili.

What, no corn, too??

Don't leave out the CON AZAFRAN and dark red kidney beans.

Crackers, oyster, saltines? Shredded cheddar on it?

LMAO.

listening to jams and planning a quail hunt for my dad, me and couple friends on the Armstrong or Kennedy ranch, probably be my last hunt with my 81 yr old dad.

still summer here

no chili yet for me

smash burgers on the griddle

👍🏻

👍🏻

That sounds like a fun one Roger.

I love these Ball canning jars. Off to the freezer with you.

Yum.

Cherish the time.

Do you know the purpose of a canning jar?

Yep. But they also do a good job storing soup and chili in the freezer 👍

Nice, Wife made me a giant skillet of no bean chili Sunday evening, been putting it over fisted flat baked potatoes in a bowl all week, damn good stuff with a couple cold beers for supper.

You forgot the ice!

Amazon sells the quart plastic takeout containers like you get at chinese joints. I buy them for all my liquid freezing needs, soups stocks chili etc. Get couple three uses out of them at least. Way cheaper than jars and don't have to worry about dropping one.

I like my glass jars. Each one has been used at least 30 times. Worst case, I have to buy some more lids. Never broke one.

I cooked a big pot of venison chili today too. Made come cornmeal waffles with cheddar cheese in them to eat with the chili. It is a do over surprisingly good.

Damn those waffles sound good.

You crossed that line!!!!

Huh... learned something new, I would have thought the jars would crack when the chili froze and expanded. I make batches of chili and then vacuum sealer bag it. I cut the bags large enough so even when filled they're kind of flat and lay in the freezer nice. They actually work out nice and can be used as as a freezer pack of sorts, when I pack food in a cooler for a weekend trip.

yep. do the same

And masa and cocoa powder

Them square and rectangle ziplock containers work the best for freezing soups, stews and chili. Stack much better and take up less space.

Great looking chili JB.
