All of the recipes sound yummy and are all winners!


For a variation to all of the above recipes add:
Cumin to your taste

3-4 Chili Ancho Pods, split open, remove seeds and devein. place oil in fry pan cook a few seconds on each side, soak in hot water a few minutes, place into blender till thoroughly smooth. Add to pot and cook about 10 more minutes.

Or you can use; El Paso Canned Enchilada Sauce, hot, mild or medium to your taste.

Stefen, that isn't your recipe, is it? You don't eat anything with bacon in it, do you? C'mon, I smell a chili chef wannabe.

Did someone say, "Great chili?".....hehehe......just so happens I know a thing or two about making great chili.....did this same experiment in my own kitchen one weekend, even had the fire department and the bomb squad on 48hr standby.

Thanks to all that entered. Only had 5 entries and 3 that qualified for the contest - #1-TreasureTales, #2-Buscadero & #3-BudP. It'll be a week before the house stops smelling like chili.. been cooking it for the past two days. I have enough chili in the freezer to last until winter...LOL ;)

They were all very good recipes...they are all winners and they all tasted excellent.

It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do because I'm one of those cooks that likes to add a little this & that, never really follow a recipe to the tee, but I had to this time and it drove me crazy....

Anyway, filled three bowls with the different chili's and sat Civilman down for the tastin' . Took him quite a while to finally make up his mind....kept going back and forth....Finally he made his decision....


#2-BUSCADERO is the WINNER.......


Now with that said, I feel sorry for the guys that Civilman has to work with tomorrow.. ....Thanks to all for submitting your recipes. Happy Cookin'
