Steel City Ground Beef And Steak Chili Recipes

BLAZING SMOKED STEAK CHILI

Steps:

• Rub the steaks with the chili powder and some salt and smoke them for a few hours over mesquite wood. Add the peppers for the last hour, and try to get some char on them. Skin the peppers and roughly chop, and chop the steak into 1" square chunks. Boil the small hot chiles and the anaheim in the beer for a moment, then soak for 20 minutes. Remove the chiles and chop to a pulp.
• Chop the onion and garlic and saute in a little oil until starting to carmelize, then add all the rest of the ingredients, including the beer that the chiles were boiled in, and of course the steak-- everything except the tomato sauce, beans and smoked poblanos. Simmer for 1 hour with the lid off to reduce, and then add the rest and simmer another 20 minutes.
• Ladle into bowls and top off with chopped raw onion and shredded cheddar to your liking!

RACHAEL RAY'S ROASTED POBLANO STEAK CHILI

Steps:

• Preheat broiler to high.
• To roast the poblano peppers, drizzle them with EVOO, season with salt and pepper, and place on a cookie sheet. Transfer to the broiler, turning every 1-2 minutes, until charred on each side.
• Remove from the oven, place in a brown paper bag and seal to keep the steam in for about 10-15 minutes. If you do not have a brown paper bag, place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for about 10-15 minutes.
• After that time, peel the skin off, remove the seeds and stem, and chop into bite-size pieces.
• While the peppers are steaming in the bag or bowl, place a large dutch oven over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons EVOO, 2 turns of the pan. Add the steak and brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
• Add the red onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, coriander and smoked paprika to the pot and cook for about 4-5 minutes.
• Add the beer, scraping the bottom of the pan with the back of a wooden spoon to release any brown bits. Add the tomatoes, chopped poblano peppers, lime zest and juice, and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
• To serve, ladle a portion of the chili into a bowl and top with grated manchego cheese and finely sliced scallions.
