Bill Dordys Sunday Chili Recipes

FOOTBALL SUNDAY CHILI

Steps:

• Dice all peppers and onions.
• Start browning meat in the same pot you'll cook the chili in (around a 16 quart pot), put a dash of all spices listed onto meat as it's browning.
• Before meat finishes browning, mix all onions and peppers in with meat.
• When meat is browned, dump all three cans of tomato puree into pot.
• Mince garlic, put in pot.
• Start mixing spices in as the puree heats up (I usually put a teaspoon of everything in right away, taste it, add more as the day goes on).
• Dump the remaining bottle of chili powder in (again, I portion it out as the day goes on, but by the end of the day, it's gone).
• Let cook for a minimum of a couple hours (longer the better, I usually go around four) then dump in both cans of beans (don't drain).
• Once chili comes back to a boil, it's good to go!
• Serve with cheddar cheese, sour cream and Italian bread.

EASY HOMEMADE CHILI

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the beef and onion and saute until meat is browned and onion is tender. Add the stewed tomatoes with juice, tomato sauce, beans and water.
• Season with the chili powder, garlic powder, salt and ground black pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and let simmer for 15 minutes.
