Sunday Football Chili Recipes

FOOTBALL CHILI

Steps:

• Heat a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot stockpot until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain. Add green bell pepper and onion to ground beef; saute until vegetables are tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Stir tomato juice, mild chili beans, hot chili beans, beer, chili powder, garlic salt, vinegar, allspice, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves into ground beef mixture. Cover stockpot with a lid and simmer at least 2 hours.

FOOTBALL SUNDAY CHILI RECIPE

Steps:

• Brown ground beef in a large skillet with onion and celery, a dash of salt and pepper, and about 1/2 a tablespoon of chili powder. While the beef is browning, add tomatoes (but NOT tomato juice) and chili beans to the pot. Use diced tomatoes for smaller chunks and stewed for large chunks, or chop up the stewed if you like smaller chunks but prefer the taste of stewed. When the beef is finished browning, drain off grease and add to the pot. Now add tomato juice. For chunkier chili, add less, and vice versa. Now add the remaining chili powder and another dash of salt and pepper, but DO NOT add brown sugar until after the chili is finished simmering. Simmer on medium low for 45 minutes. When done simmering, add the brown sugar and stir well. Serve with milk and crackers, or top with sour cream and cheese. Enjoy. Note: For spicier chili, omit brown sugar. Chili can also be simmered in a slow cooker for parties.

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.
