Venison Skyline Style Chili Recipes

ANNIE'S EASY VENISON CHILI

Steps:

• Saute onion and garlic in a large soup pot over medium-high heat until onion begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add venison and cook until browned, about 7 minutes.
• Add all 3 types of beans, diced tomatoes with green chiles, tomato sauce, broth, cumin, oregano, paprika, chili powder, sugar, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until flavors meld, at least 30 minutes.

VENISON CHILI FROM THE LAND

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the olive oil and bacon and cook until the bacon renders its fat, about 4 minutes. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Pat the venison dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. In batches, cook the meat in the Dutch oven until browned all over, about 6 minutes per batch. Remove the meat to a plate as it browns.
• Once all of the meat is out of the pot, add the onion, bell pepper, green chilies, and garlic and cook until the onion and pepper begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, and chipotle powder and cook until the vegetables are coated with the spices, about 1 minute. Pour in the beer, bring to a boil, and boil until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, beef broth, chopped chipotle and chipotle sauce, brown sugar, and cocoa powder. Bring to a simmer and add the bacon and venison back. Simmer the stew, partially covered, until the meat is tender and the sauce is thick and flavorful, 1 1/2 hours to 1 hour and 45 minutes, uncovering for the last half an hour. If the meat is tender but the sauce is too thin, simmer rapidly over high heat for a minute or two to reduce, stirring to keep the bottom from burning.

VENISON SKYLINE STYLE CHILI

Steps:

• In a large pot, put in about a quarter-stick of butter and let it melt. Turn the pot over and tilt it around so that the butter coats the entire bottom of the pot, and all around the sides as it melts. This will make it so that the Chili won't crust up and burn to the sides of the pot. Once the butter is melted, begin to heat up Cans of Chili on medium/high heat. Add Venison and Jimmy Dean sausage immediately (no need to brown it first, as the boiling chili will cook it). The meat can even be frozen when you add it, which is what makes this recipe so fast and easy.
• Keep this pot over medium heat until it begins to boil. When the chili begins to boil, reduce the heat slightly so that it just barely does not boil.
• Stir the pot regularly and leave it at this heat (just barely not boiling) for about 20 to 30 minutes or until it reaches desired thickness.
• Boil a separate pot of water and add pasta. Cook pasta until it is done.
• Chop up an onion into small pieces.
• To serve, fill a bowl with pasta, then cover with chili, then cover the chili with cheese immediately so that it melts, then add onions (if desired) then oyster crackers. If you want it to be spicier, add Frank's Red Hot sauce.

VENISON CHILI

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar and saute for 2 to 3 more minutes. Then stir in the red wine, vinegar, tomato paste, chicken stock, cumin, cayenne pepper, chili powder, cilantro and salt. Simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the mixture is reduced by about half.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the bacon and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the bacon is browned. Move the bacon to one side of the skillet and add the venison to the empty side of the skillet. Season the meat with salt to taste and saute the meat for 15 minutes, or until well browned. Stir in the beans and toss all together. Transfer this mixture to the simmering pot.
• Mix everything together thoroughly and let simmer for about 20 more minutes.
