Boneless Rib Eye And Red Bean Chili With Jalapeno Cornbread Crumbles Recipes

BONELESS RIB EYE AND RED BEAN CHILI WITH JALAPENO CORNBREAD CRUMBLES

Steps:

• For the jalapeno cornbread crumbles: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 12- by-10-inch pan with butter. Set aside.
• Combine the cornmeal, flour, both sugars, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl, then whisk and set aside. In another bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, honey and melted butter. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients; mix until combined. Fold in the jalapenos. Pour into the greased pan, then smooth with a spatula and bake, 10 minutes. Rotate the pan and continue to bake until risen and golden brown, 10 to 20 minutes more. Set aside to cool.
• For the rib eye and red bean chili: Meanwhile, cut the rib eye into medium dice and add to a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and 2 teaspoons garlic salt.
• Heat 3 ounces olive oil in the bottom of a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until hot. Add the seasoned meat, in batches if needed, and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes. Remove the meat from the pot, then set aside in a bowl and add the remaining 2 ounces oil to the pot; heat until hot. Add the garlic and onions and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste until combined, then pour in the beans and crushed tomatoes, stirring to combine. Stir in the beef broth, oregano, cumin, chili powder, butter, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and the remaining 2 teaspoons garlic salt. Bring to a low simmer and cook to concentrate flavors, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the browned meat, then cover. Allow to simmer for 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, crumble the cornbread into bite-sized pieces.
• Ladle individual servings of chili into bowls. Top with the Cheddar and crumbled cornbread, then drizzle with the sour cream. Garnish with the scallions and serve.

BEEF RIB CHILI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Season the ribs with salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup of Chili Powder. Place the ribs on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes. Turn the ribs over and continue to roast for another 20 minutes.
• Heat a large 12-quart pot over medium heat. Cook the onions in vegetable oil for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste, cumin, coriander, oregano, remaining Chili Powder and cook for 1 minute. Add the tequila, and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and bay leaves. Bring mixture to a boil and add oven roasted ribs. Cover pot and reduce heat, simmering for 2 hours or until the meat is falling off the bone.
• Remove pot from the heat and pull meat away from the bones, discarding the bones. Add cooked black beans and heat through. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper.
• To serve, garnish with the cilantro and parsley. Serve with Cornbread.
• Remove the stems from the dried chiles. Roughly chop dried chiles. In batches, place chiles, their seeds, cumin, oregano, paprika and cinnamon, into the food processor. Grind together until it resembles a rough powder. This will take several minutes.
• Chili Powder can be stored for up to 2 months.
• Place black beans in a large pot and cover with twice as much cold water. Cook over medium-high heat for 1 hour or until beans are soft. Strain and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the corn on a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in large bowl. In a separate bowl, beat together the buttermilk, butter, and egg. Combine the jalapeno and cooled corn with the dry ingredients until evenly distributed. Fold the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients until just incorporated (see Cook's Note**). Pour the batter into a well seasoned 9-inch cast iron frying pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.

FOUR-ALARM RIB-EYE CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the rib-eye and cook until browned all over and the fat has rendered, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the rib-eye to a baking sheet and turn the heat down to medium.
• Add the onions, poblanos, bell peppers, Anaheim peppers, serranos and garlic to the Dutch oven and sauté until softened, 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, coriander, cumin, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt; cook for another 2 to 3 minutes to toast the spices. Next, stir in the tomato paste; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes to toast the tomato paste and incorporate it into the vegetables. Deglaze the pot with the lager, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half, 5 minutes. Add the chipotle puree, crushed tomatoes, pinto beans, kidney beans, corn and the rib-eye. Bring the chili to a simmer and cook, partially covered, for 30 minutes, until the chili has thickened and the rib-eye is very tender. Season with salt to taste. Serve with your favorite toppings.
