RECIPE BY Southern Living, 2005 edition

This hearty beef chili features boneless chuck roast and a medley of traditional chili seasonings. Serve with homemade cornbread for a complete meal.

Ingredients:...4 pounds boneless chuck roast, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 2 tablespoons chili powder 2 (6-ounce) cans tomato paste 1 (32-ounce) container beef broth 2 (8-ounce) cans tomato sauce 2 teaspoons granulated garlic 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground oregano 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
Serve with cornbread sticks (optional) Toppings: crushed tortilla chips, sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped onion

How to Make It:

Step 1...Brown meat, in batches, in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Remove meat, reserving drippings in Dutch oven. Add chili powder to Dutch oven; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in tomato paste; cook 5 minutes.

Step 2...Return beef to Dutch oven. Stir in beef broth and next 9 ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 1 1/2 hours or until beef is tender. Serve with cornbread sticks, if desired, and desired toppings.

Chef's Notes...If you've had spices longer than a year, it might be time to replace them. Seasonings tend to dull in flavor the longer they sit on the shelf. Always store them in a cool, dry place.

I am not going to serve with cornbread. YUCK. Think big fluffy biscuits.

The thing I find interesting about where they recommend you store seasonings and the space, in the kitchen, they are usually stored are diametrically different.

Have you ever served your chili over a baked potato. Very yummy.

Yes, I think chili over a baked potato is really good. But, I usually eat chili with tortilla chips, crackers or corn chips (think Frito pie).

Haven't heard of a Frito pie in ages, still remember my first taste of one, it was awesome!

Often, when I have Frito pie, I sprinkle fresh-cut corn over it...sometimes, even cream-style corn.

Sounds good and will try it. Do you have a hyperthyroid? You should be 400 pounds and waddle when you walk, life just ain't fair. If I smell food, I gain weight. Maybe if I exercise more, just walking from my computer to the kitchen and back isn't working anymore.

Good clean living and a high metabolism.does it for me.

Peewee Loc: San Antonio, TX

Yeah right, says the gunslinger scheduled for an O.K. Corral duel. I'll buy the high metabolism part for 100 Alex.

Here's a homemade BBQ sauce recipe....*

Old Time Texas Barbecue Sauce

2 cups chopped onions
1 cup strong black coffee
1 cup ketchup
1 cup worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup hot chili peppers, minced*
3 tablespoons chili powder (adds flavor without heat)
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons salt

Simmer about 25-30 minutes, then puree in blender to help bring out all of the flavors.

Note: I prefer the dried chilies available in small plastic packages, found in most grocery stores today. When reconstituted in warm water (about 10-20 minutes) they provide a rich, smokey flavor that fresh chilies do not have.

*Two favorite commercial brands of mine are Stubb's BBQ Sauce & Salt Lick's Original BBQ Sauce.
