homemade chili, bbq sauce or bad ass salsa recipe

I know there's a gajillion recipes online; but since we're family, thought i'd ask if you wouldn't mind throwing up some of your homemade chili recipes, bbq sauces or salsa. Fire away!

 

+ + = Muy bueno.

 

crickets...........

 

My roommate makes a kick-ass Pico de Gallo (just the right amount of kick) and guacamole dip

 

Don't knock it. Try it. It's good.

 

Do u want salsa like for chips or for some carne asada?

 

Diced tomatoes
Jalapeños
Fresh garlic
Cilantro if you like it
Cayenne pepper
Salt
Black pepper


Blender

 

Not homemade chili but this is really good:

Ballows chili mix
1lb sausage, 1lb beef, 1lb elk/deer or beef
One yellow onion
2-3 jalepenos
Ground red pepper

If you make it without the last three things, I think it's too sweet. Adjust quantities to taste.

Note, please do not put beans in chili! Texas chili should NOT have beens.

 

Pretty much how I do it, except I use whole peeled tomatoes in the can and dont add cayenne or black pepper. Sometimes I use serrano peppers if I want it hotter.

 

both!

 

3 lbs of roma tomatoes
1 large onion, quartered
A few fresh chilis, depending on the heat you want
An ear of fresh corn if you want corn
Lots of fresh cilantro
A little crushed garlic (I’d do 1/4 tsp for the entire batch because I don’t love it in salsa).
Salt and pepper to taste
Squeeze of fresh lime juice

Roast the tomatoes, onion, chilis and corn over a flame. Gas grill works great. Roast until the tomatoes and chilis are blistering and blackening. Let it cool for 15 minutes, then cut the kernels off the corn cob and dump everything into a food processor and pulse together.

The flame roasting makes all the difference.

If you want it less watery, cut the tomatoes in half and squeeze the juice out a bit into the sink before tossing them into the processor. Romas will have less juice to start with anyway.

 

Right on!!! Keep em coming!

 

I dont really have a recipe. I generally start throwing it together until it tastes good to me then i stop adding stuff.

For the most part its
2 pounds venison
1 pound of the fattiest ground beef you have an find, cause venison is so lean you need some fat.
I brown all the meat together in a skillet before putting in crockpot.
I use pre made chilli kit, for the seasoning, along with tomato paste, tomato sauce, about 3 to 4 cups of beer, a little whiskey, some brown sugar, and little cayenne.
Then i let it all come together in the crockpot.
Needless to say, everyone loves it and there is usually none left at the end of the day.

 

Thank you sir

 

Had the smoker going so I tried it a little differently today. Smoked the veg for about 90 minutes with my ribs, then under the broiler for a little char. Fingers crossed it makes good salsa.

 

No true chili has beans.....

 

Amen!

 

Salsa
4 or 5 Roma tomatoes
1/2 bunch of cilantro
1/2 onion
2 jalapeños
2 habaneros
2 poblanos
Juice of 1 lime
Season with Kosher salt, fresh black pepper
Blend till desired consistency.

I think that’s it. Been about a year since I have made it but it’s about time for some.

Edit: forgot garlic. Few cloves of garlic like 2-3.

This will get spicier over a couple days as the flavors marry. Maybe blend the chili’s first to help break them down before adding the tomatoes.
