********************************************* ********************************************* ************PLEASE SUBSCRIBE************ ********************************************* ********************************************* My easy to make with no complaints chili recipe. Greg's Chili Recipe Ingredients: 2 to 2 1/2 lbs ground Rib eye steak (or ground beef) (Cut Rib eye into 2" chunks and then pulse in a food processor until it is pea sized bits) 1 lbs hot Italian sausage 1 medium onion chopped 2 medium green bell peppers chopped 2 Poblano peppers chopped 4 cloves garlic minced/crushed 1/2-teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon black pepper 2 tablespoons Olive oil 1 can of dark kidney beans with juice 1 can of black beans with juice 1 Michelob Amber Bach beer 1 15oz can tomato sauce 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes 1 6oz can tomato paste 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, for topping (optional) (Spice Mix) 4 tablespoons chili powder 1 tablespoon Emeril's Essence 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/4-teaspoon cayenne 1-teaspoon sugar 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1 tablespoon smoked paprika (smoked makes a big difference) Directions: Brown the ground Rib eye or ground beef, stirring and cutting with the edge of the spatula to break up the pieces, drain grease and set aside. Cook the sausage the same way and drain any excess grease. If the sausage is in a casing remove the casing by slicing the sausage link long ways and peel off the casing. Set the cooked sausage to the side. To the empty pot add the olive oil, onion, bell pepper, Poblano peppers, garlic, salt, black pepper and cook, stirring, until soft. Now add the beer, tomato paste, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, ground beef, sausage, kidney beans, and black beans. Mix well. Now add the spice mix; sugar, cumin, chili powder, Emeril's essence, smoked paprika, cayenne, and dried oregano, to the pot. Mix well. Lower the heat to low and simmer covered for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally. ENJOY! If you can't find Emeril's essence seasoning in a store his is a copycat recipe. Emeril's Seasoning (Essence) Ingredients: • 2 1/2 tablespoons paprika • 2 tablespoons salt • 2 tablespoons garlic powder • 1 tablespoon black pepper • 1 tablespoon onion powder • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper • 1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano • 1 tablespoon dried thyme Directions: Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
