    Chili

    Ingredients:
    3 tbsp cooking oil
    2 large onions
    2 cloves garlic
    1 lb ground beef
    3 heaping tablespoons chili powder
    1 tbsp ground cumin
    1 tsp chili flakes (or to taste)
    1 cinnamon stick (or 1 tsp ground cinnamon)
    1 28 oz can tomatoes
    2 19 oz cans kidney beans
    1 bottle beer
    1 5 oz can tomato paste
    1 small onion, finely diced
    Salt and pepper to taste
    1 cup cheddar cheese, grated (for garnish)

    Equipment:
    One large soup pot.

    Directions:
    Finely chop the onions and garlic, and fry them in oil over medium heat until translucent. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in chili powder, cumin, chili flakes, and cinnamon, and cook until they start to give off a nice aroma. Add beer, tomatoes, tomato paste, and kidney beans, and season well with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer until reduced to a nice thick sauce (60 to 90 minutes). Offer chopped onion, grated cheddar cheese and hot sauce as garnish.


    :D enjoy

    I like chili enough, but i've got a real problem with tailgate. No matter what I do with it, it's always tough. Any advice?

    Not much yet, got a pretty good sound system w/ my custom sub box. Plan on adding more lights & a tool box.
    How long did you marinate it?

    But seriously
    Duck breast chilli is awesome after the hunt!
    Simple, buy the chilli w/o meat.
    Brown the 1/2"-3/4" cubed duck breasts in butter toss em into the pot of warming chilli, done!
    But you have to eat it out of a dixie or paper cup to get the full effect, no spoon either!
    Oh yeah, & lotsa cold beer.
