Check the seasonings and add what you think it needs - at least a little of each of the above mentioneds. At this point you add rice -I just kind of eyeball the liquid in the pot and guess - anywhere from one to two cups (if you overdo it add more liquid 8-) ). Cover and simmer some more, but keep a closer eye on it as it thickens so the bottom doesn't burn.

Then pour off the soaking water, add 1 bottle of stout, and add fresh water to cover the beans plus about 1". Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover partway (it will boil over if fully covered) and let cook for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add water if neccessary. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions, and all chili peppers. Saute a few minutes until soft, then add to the beans. Add the vinegar and spices and the diced tomatoes; simmer for another half hour, stirring. As the liquid from the tomatoes boils off, start adding stout from the second bottle. About half of this bottle is reserved for the cook. Add the corn and the peanut butter, simmer for another hour or so, keeping it moist enough (with stout and/or water) so that it doesn't crust over. Stir occassionally. Best if you let it sit overnight, and reheat it for dinner the next day. To serve: cut the florets off of the broccoli, and steam until done (but crisp). I ususally do this in the microwave. Serve the chili with a sprinkle of chopped onions and grated cheddar cheese on top (for vegan, omit cheese or use tofu cheese). The broccoli can either be stirred in at the last minute, pressed on top of the chili for nice presentation, or placed along side it. Serve with spanish rice (follows) and with warmed corn tortillas!

Add spices and garlic, bring to boil, lower heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Add more liquid only to keep the mix from burning. Skim off as much grease as you can, and add masa harina. Simmer for another 30 minutes. Taste and adjust spices if necessary. This is spicy chili, so leave out some of the spicy stuff in the beginning if you prefer a milder chili.

Genuine Texas Red Chili (Rio Llano Variety) Yield: 6 Servings 1 1/3 Kg lean beef (or venison) -coarse 170 1/8 g pearl (or lone star beer *) 85 g tomato paste 29 2/3 ml cumin seeds,Ground 14 3/4 ml ground. oregano leaves 3 md cloves garlic,crushed 1 med. onion,finely chopped 14 3/4 ml salt 6 long red chili pods In a large stew pot, put meat, beer, and 2 cups water. Simmer meat until light grey in color, and add tomato paste. Stir and simmer for a few minutes, then add spices (which have been ground in perfectly dry blender at high speed), garlic, onion and salt. Stir thoroughly and remove from heat. Remove stems and seeds from chili pods and boil in covered saucepan with 3 cups water for 15 minutes. Remove peppers and water to blender and blend into thick sauce. Add sauce to meat and simmer 2 hours. Serves 4 to 6. If chili needs thickening, up to 15 Ml of Masa Harina (corn flour) may be added. This adds a unique Mexican flavor. If chili is too thick, additional water may be added, but add slowly and cautiously. For low calorie or greaseless chile, use very lean meat and never add suet. If additional "caliente" is needed, while chili is simmering, add ground cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce. * Pearl & Lone Star are Texas beers -- a bottle of Foster's would probably work just as well (I'm assuming you're calling from Oz). A word about chili peppers -- chili peppers, the real secret to good chili, can be found in many varieties, all rich in vitamins A and C. Long Red Anaheims are mildly hot, and the many Mexican varieties or Anchos, are usually deeper in color and more pungent. Chili Pisado is a very mild pepper usually found in dried form which provides almost no heat, but is rich in flavor and color. They may be used in combination with the small red very pungent Jap Chilies. A combination of mild and hot peppers may be necessary to get the desired red color and hotness. Fresh or dried pods may be used, as well as ground chili peppers or chili powder (not to be confused with commercial chili powders, many of which are blends containing additional spices; check ingredients on label). Use chili powder only when nothing else is available since the powdering process seems to leave a slight bitter taste.

I find that the easiest way to work with it is to cut the squash in half crosswise at the base of large neck. Then carefully cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out any seeds in the cavity and slice the halves into 1/2 inch lengths crosswise. Peel the skin from each piece and then cut into dice. 1. Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy pot. Add onions, garlic and red peppers. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have wilted. Add the chili powder, cumin, allspice, oregano and red pepper flakes; cook for 1 minute longer, stirring to coat vegetables well with spices. 2. Add the chopped tomatoes with their juices, red wine, diced butternut squash and orange zest. Bring all ingredients to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until squash is tender. Add salt and pepper to taste, and adjust seasonings. 3. Add the kidney beans and fold in gently. Cook 10 minutes more. Just before serving, stir in the chopped cilantro and parsley.

If you're timid, substitute green bell peppers for some of the chiles. The finished dish should have an intense, pepper flavor, but doesn't need to send you rushing to the emergency hospital ;-) chicken broth (do not use a good strong stock here -- just a regular- strength broth) Place the whole chili peppers on a roasting pan, and place under the broiler, turning frequently, until the exterior is well charred. (A better method is to grill them over charcoal). Remove the peppers, and place them in a sealed plastic bag for about 15 minutes to cool and allow the steam to loosen the skin. Peel the papery skin from the exterior of the peppers. Don't panic is you don't get every last bit - - the world will not end. Remove the seeds from the peppers, and chop the pepper flesh into fairly fine dice. Melt enough lard in a heavy stewing pot to film the pot to the depth of 1/4 inch. Meanwhile, roll the pork cubes in the seasoned flour. Brown the floured pork in the lard, a few pieces at a time, until the exterior is nice and crisp. Remove the meat, and set aside. Cook the onion in the lard until it is soft and golden. Stir in enough flour to make a stiff paste, then cook until the flour/onion mixture is golden brown. Do not allow it to burn. Add enough chicken broth to make a thin gravy, then add the pork, peppers, and tomatoes (if used). Season to taste with Mexican Oregano and cumin. Simmer until the meat is very tender, at least 1 1/2 hours, but longer is better, and if you can arrange to make the dish the night before so the flavors can mellow, that's better yet.

Old Buffalo Breath Chili Yield: 1 Servings 5 lb chuck roast 8 cloves garlic --,Crushed 1/4 c olive oil 2 T mexican oregano 1 T cumin seeds -- and,Toasted 1 ground 1 juice of 1 lime 2 T mild chile 2 T hot chile 1 beef broth 1 masa harina 1 sm whole piquin chiles,Dried 1 salt --,To Taste For the fire: mesquite wood chips and hardwood charcoal. For the Rub: 2 or 3 cloves of garlic and chili powder. The chuck roast should be as lean as possible and cut at least three inches thick. Two or three hours before you plan to make the chili, rub the meat all over with a mash of crushed garlic and salt then sprinkle it with chili powder to coat it lightly. Loosely cover it with plastic and set it aside. Fire up enough hardwood charcoal to sear the meat in an outdoor grill, preferably one with a cover. At the same time, soak a few handfuls of the mesquite chips in the water. When the coals are covered with gray ash, spread them out evenly, and scatter the soaked mesquite chips over them. Then immediately set the meat on a grill over the smoke, about an inch from the coals. Cover the grill and adjust the dampers to maintain a slow, steady heat. Let meat sear for about 12 minutes (this is meant to flavor, not to cook the meat) and turn over to sear the other side for the same amount of time. Remove it from the heat, saving any juices on its surface, and transfer to the refrigerator. Let it cool thoroughly, about one hour. After the meat has cooled, trim away any surface fat or cartilage. With a sharp knive, cube the meat into the smallest pieces you have patience for, saving all juices. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over moderate heat. Stir in the garlic and saute until it turns translucent. Stir in the meat and all reserved meat juices, adding just enough beef broth to cover, or about one cup. Pour in the lime juice and sprinkle in the rest of the seasonings, stirring and tasting as you go. Crumble in a few piquins or other fiery chiles to bring the heat up to taste. However, do not try to adjust the seasoning to perfection right now; it's easy to ruin a chili by correcting the flavors too soon -- the long cooking will smooth and sweeten it. Lower the heat to as low as possible. If the pot is left to boil, the meat will toughen. Every half hour or so after the first hour, taste for seasoning, adjusting and thickening with the masa harina a teaspoonful at a time. The chili should be about ready to eat in three hours, although it will benefit from a night's aging in the refrigerator.
