Hey BoHog,

I won 10th place at the Nebraska Chili cookoff with this one, though I added beans. It was my first competition and didn't want to compete with the "really big guys" in the no beans category. I thought it was pretty good for my first time competing! I named it "Three Bean Marine Chili" as it had pintos, great northers, and kidney beans in it. I took out a little water and sub'ed beer instead.

2 1/2 lb Lean ground chuck
1 lb Lean ground pork
1 c Finely chopped onion
4 Garlic cloves; finely chopped.
1 cn light beer (12 oz.)
8 oz Hunt's tomato sauce
1 c Water
3 tb Chili powder
2 tb Ground cumin
2 tb beef-flavor instant bouillon (or 6 cubes)
2 ts Oregano leaves
2 ts Paprika
2 ts Sugar
1 ts Unsweetened cocoa
1/2 ts Ground coriander
1/2 ts Louisiana hot sauce, to taste
1 ts Flour
1 ts Cornmeal
1 tb Warm water


In large saucepan or Dutch oven, brown half the meat; pour off fat. Remove meat. Brown remaining meat; pour off all fat except 2 Tbsps. Add onion, garlic; cook and stir until tender. Add meat and remaining ingredients except flour, cornmeal and warm water. Mix well. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer covered 2 hours. Stir together flour and cornmeal; add warm water. Mix well. Stir into chili mixture. Cook covered 20 minutes longer. Serve hot. Makes 2 quarts.

i was browsing the forums and finally decided to sign up and post my chili recipe. if anyone decides to try it out, hope you enjoy!

5 jalapenos
5 habeneros
3 lbs ground beef
1-Medium yellow onion
3-5 Cloves of garlic (depends on size)
Chili powder (as much or as little as you'd like)
Cayenne pepper (see above)
Cumin (see above)
1 bottle beer of your liking
2 cups water
28 oz peeled whole tomatoes
1 regular size can of tomato paste (forget the size, but one step up from 6 oz)
1 small can tomato paste (6 oz)
2 lbs of light red kidney beans

Instructions:
Start off by dicing the onion and mincing the garlic. Next take the seeds the jalapenos and habeneros (or as much as you can get out) and dice.
Next season the beef with sea salt and pepper and brown. While browning, take the can of tomatoes, drain them and dump into a crock pot. Smash the tomatoes to release the juices from the inside. When the beef is done browning, drain the grease and dump into the crock pot. Next, take your favorite beer and dump over the beef. After pouring the beer in, add your diced onion, garlic, jalapenos and habeneros. Next drain your can of kidney beans and add to the pot. Season with the chili powder, cumin and cayenne pepper. Next add your regular size can and small can of tomato paste. The very last thing to add is your 2 cups of water. Once everything is added to the crock pot, stir everything to mix it up. Set the crock pot at high and simmer for 3 hrs.
