Texas Bbq Sweet Hot Chili Recipes

AWARD-WINNING SWEET AND SPICY CHILI

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Reserve the bacon grease for later.
• In a large Dutch oven, brown the beef and sausage over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Drain the grease and set the meat aside.
• In the same pot, drizzle about a tablespoon of the reserved bacon grease and sauté the diced peppers and onion. Season with salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder and cook until translucent and tender, about 5-8 minutes.
• Add the beef and sausage back to the pot, then add the remaining ingredients: V-8, ketchup, tomatoes, kidney beans, brown sugar, lemon juice, worcestershire, vinegar, mustard, molasses, and sriracha. Mix well.
• Cover and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Add the bacon in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
• Add chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve with bread or crackers and top with sour cream, cheese, or any of your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

TEXAS BBQ SWEET-HOT CHILI

Steps:

• Sauté onion in a little bit of oil. Add ground beef and minced garlic. Dust with dill, chili powder, cumin and red pepper flakes. Mix and cook covered over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until beef is cooked through. Drain fat.
• Add tomatoes, tomato paste and beans.
• Add picante sauce, barbecue sauce, diced green chilies.
• Add any additional chili powder and/or red pepper flakes.
• Bring to a low boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes or more. I have let this simmer for up to 2 hours and the longer it sits, the yummier it gets. It's great the next day, and the day after, too!
• Serve with sour cream and shredded cheese on top. Eat with the Frito Scoops if you are feeling adventurous enough to dig in without a spoon.
• Optional - Make a box of mac 'n cheese and ring your chili bowl with it before spooning in the chili. Delectable!

• In extra large skillet, cook the ground beef on low-medium heat, stirring occasionally, breaking up the beef into small pieces so there are no large chunks.

• When beef is browned (no more pink), drain out as much grease as possible.
• Turn heat to low, and add the diced peppers. Continue stirring occasionally.
• While beef & peppers are simmering on low heat, put all cans of Rotel, beans, and beer into a large pot on high heat.
• When the contents of the pot are boiling, add the cayenne pepper, cajun seasoning, and BBQ sauce to the pot. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds.
• Turn heat to low and add the beef mixture. Stir thoroughly. Cover and simmer for at least one hour, stirring every 10-15 minutes.
• After the chili has simmered for one hour, uncover, add the sour cream, grated cheese, and ONE cup of shredded Mexican cheese. Stir thoroughly. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
