I don't know if it is killer and can't miss but here is my recipe:

Joe’s Spicy Chili Recipe

4 lbs of Chili meat (*)
1 large onion chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tbl Oregano
1 tbl comino (cumin seed)
6 tsp chili powder (#)
1 can Rotel tomatoes (%)
1 can tomato paste (@)
2 cans beer
1 tbl Seasoned Salt
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper

Brown chili meat, onions and garlic in a large stewing pot. Drain off all fat and return meat mixture to the pot. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to boil. Lower flame and simmer covered at least 1 hour.



Notes:
* Instead of buying chili meat try purchasing a roast and have it ground into chili meat. Rump roast works best because of less fat although any roast will suffice.

# This can be done to taste. I will use up to 6 tablespoons of chili powder for really spicy chili. I prefer Gephardt’s Chili Powder.

% 1 can whole tomatoes can be substituted for milder chili. For spicy chili add one chopped jalapeno without seeds. For eye watering chili leave the seeds in the jalapeno.

@ I use this as my thickening agent. Masa can be substituted.




Joe -

I've got a batch of your recipe brewing right now. Can't wait to try it!

Oh, it worked out great! Very, very tasty. I used Oktoberfest for the beer. 3 teaspoons of chili powder and a hearty dose of cayenne.

Tell you what, though - my constitution isn't quite as iron as it used to be. Today wasn't all that fun for me, if you know what I mean...

LOL! I've scaled back quite a bit myself over the years.

Glad to hear it worked for you. Tweak it as you desire to get it the way you like it. That's what chili is all about.

I think I am the only person I know who's tolerance for Scoville units goes up as I get older. I love painfully hot food. I have to make a pot of Chili just for me to get it like I like it. For those that like insane hot sauces (more for show that to actually use every day, or to pop out for a guest that says they have a high tolerance) check these out:

Wow. Just ... wow.

I've owned a bottle of Dave's Insanity sauce and tasted the Private Reserve (which was an experience in itself). I had no idea how low down on the scale they actually were.

One of the funniest moments of my life... putting a bottle of Dave's Insanity Sauce in the kitchen at an Indian start-up company. The guys insisted they could handle anything I could dish out............

Especially after a few cocktails, it's moments like this that are made for this type of hot sauce!

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is...
