I'm hungover as fuck. I'm going to attempt combining all of pic related into a huge pot of chili.
Yes, this chili has beans. There's always some sperg on /ck/ who freaks out over beans in chili. Beans in chili is traditional.
I've always wondered why ground beef comes in logs in America. Why is that?
Everywhere else I've seen it for sale it's in normal packaging with a clear lid so you can look at it before you buy it.
My heads going to fucking explode so I'll keep the steps short. Brown two lbs of ground beef over medium heat. I like to season my meat a little bit with pic related.

Drain the meat completely and add in your chopped garlic, onion, and peppers. Celery is acceptable too but I didn't have any so fuck it. Stir fairly constantly to make sure meat doesn't stick and burn from bottom. Onions will start becoming clear in about 8 min

Forgot pic due to retardation
>>7762443
Add your dry spices. From greatest to least amount, starting with a few tablespoons: chili powder, paprika, cumin, chipotle, and adjust the amount of cayenne powder depending to your tastes.
i always add 'eans to my 'li.
>>7762457
After you stir in your dry spices, time to add your wet ingredients: beef base, Worcestershire, and red sofrito. We're going to Flavortown!
>>7762430
That's not really the norm. I buy the plastic-wrapped stuff from the grocery butcher because it's generally more trustworthy. But if you know your grocery has shit meat then I guess you get the tube.
>>7762466
This is what we are working with so far. I added some 365-brand green chile purée as well. We are about to hit it with our beer and reduce it into our base.
>>7762475
Glug glug glug... 48 oz of cheap beer into the pot.
>>7762480
Doh. I'm drinking the third one.
>>7762482
Bring to a bubble over medium. We are going to reduce the alcohol out.
>>7762487
Once the foamy bubbles subside its sign that the alcohol has cooked out. We are on our way gentlemen.
>>7762439
>Drain the meat completely
God, i hate this normie shit. The flavor is in the grease; AND, since you are using beans, that is plenty of fiber to pad your digestive tract to handle it
>>7762495
Add your pic related (I also added some tomato paste and a squirt of ketchup, yeah whatever) and bring back to a bubble.
>>7762505
Here's our chili base, looking pretty good.
>>7762507
Add in your beans. I am using beans I have soaked the night previous: red (kidney), pinto, navy, and black beans.
Using canned beans is totally acceptable in my book as well.
>>7762519
Keep cooking em on low with the lid on.
Welp that's all I got for a few hrs, the beans need to cook. Anyone like chili?
>>7762519
Chili doesn't have beans you moron
>>7762530
I just drain it because it's healthier, I didn't use lean beef this time. If it's over 10% fat, I tend to drain it. It's up to you though.
>>7762538
There he is.
>>7762543
>because it's healthier
REEEEEEEEEEEEEe
You are a fucking alcoholic who is killing yourself with booze.....but you drain a little bit of grease because its healthy.....fucking kill yourself.
Judging by the time and you being hungover, you must be an Aussie....which explains the autism
>>7762545
>damn him for being correct
>>7762569
Chill out fatty. I like to have a cocktail, you like to drink liquid fat. Neither is healthy in excess.
>>7762569
>you must be an Aussie
>winn dixie, 365, walmart
He obviously lives in the south. Probably cajun south.
Looks solid. I just made it the exact same way almost except for a dash of Balsamic Vinegar as no wine or beer and tinned beans.
>>7762579
>I like to have a cocktail
takes about 10 to get a hangover
>>7762430
it's the stuff made in a factory that's combined with pink slime. the texture is really revolting and noticeably different, once you squeeze it out.
>>7762640
Good job anon. Very perceptive and smart.
>>7762472
Usually that tube means Walmart imo.
This chili's flavor is amazing and spicy. Sucks that the beans are going to have to cook for a few more hours. Starving.
What's up with the catalog
>>7762425
>Beans in chili is traditional.
That's a good way to get murdered in Texas. Serves you right too.
>>7762918
Chili w/ beans is a meal
Chili w/o beans is a hot dog topping
>>7762764
How long would you say it takes to make this?
Looks like a nice comfy meal that you can keep eating for a few days. Also I've never really cooked with beer. How does this effect the flavor? Do you use PBR for any particular reason or is it just what you had on hand?
>>7762923
>Chili w/o beans is a hot dog topping
Exactly, I don't understand hoe people eat Chili straight w/o beans; how are you supposed to cut all of the vinegar and cream?
>>7762935
Chili is awesome. I'm going to freeze a ton of this. If you use canned beans this can be ready in 3 or so hrs, dry beans like me might take me most of the day. I use PBR because it's cheap, and yes, using beer as your liquid really improves the flavor. Also make sure you use the sofrito, worchestershire, and beef base. It adds a ton of dimension and flavor.
>>7762526
I love your threads, bro
>>7762948
>and yes, using beer as your liquid really improves the flavor
oh boy, this retarded fucking meme again....fucking drunk
>>7762936
>vinegar and cream
>>7762954
Fine, use water. No shits will be given.
>>7762952
My threads? Which threads?
Btw for those keeping track.. I used dry beans for this recipe and I finished cooking 4 hrs ago. Still cooking.
>>7763000
Sick trips checked
>>7762700
That's fuggin gross. I'm glad it's not even for sale where I live.
>>7762503
>grease; AND
>; AND
I don't think you should be in charge of the semi-colon committee.
>>7763809
That's not even true
>>7762503

>>7762569
There is barely any flavour in the liquid grease from ground beef. Only the seared fat, which is stuck to the meat and pan, needs to go into the chili.
You would know this if you had ever drained the grease and tasted it.
I wish you were right though, so that tallow fried chips (fries) could taste like steak.
>>7762425
do yourself a favor and pour that pbr shit down the drain and go get a nice stout.
