REAL CHILI

5 pounds beef cut into small bits.
5 tablespoons cumin
5 large onions, chopped
10 cloves garlic, crushed
10 New mexico red chile pods - remove seeds, stems, and any white ribs.
6 cups beef broth
Oregano, to taste
Salt and pepper to taste

In a separate pot, add 2+ cups of water to boil. When it boils, add your chilies and make sure they're covered by the water, put a lid on it, and turn off the burner. Leave it sitting for 10 to 15 minutes until very soft. Puree the soft pods in a blender.

In a large, heavy bottom pot, brown the beef. Add the cumin, chopped onions and garlic. Cook until onions go clear. Add the pureed pods, oregano, salt and pepper to the stew pot, stirring the mixture well. Cook the chili from 3 to 4 hours over low heat, adding water and stirring as necessary

do you really think cowboys carried tomatoes or sauce with them on the trail?

But they carried onions, garlic, peppers and and broth as Kattelyn pointed out?

I kinda see your point but I reckon the recipe has changed a lot over the years since then.

I put beans in my chili if I want beans, I don't if I don't. I call it chili and it's delicious. If you don't want to eat it then that means more chili for me.

Now the real question is, who puts peanut butter in their chili?

Shut your filthy mouth!

I think I'm going to have to make some 1800's chili to see what this "Real Chili" taste like. Who would of thought, no tomatoes in chili.....

Such a controversial dish

make sure you "puree" those peppers with a GD rock or something
