TEXAS BOWL OF RED

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half of the beef and cook, stirring, until browned, about 4 minutes; transfer to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pot and brown the remaining beef, then return the first batch to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the garlic.
• Combine the chili powder, cumin and flour in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the meat in the pot and stir until evenly coated. Crumble in the oregano with your fingers, then add 3 cans beef broth, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low; partially cover and simmer until the meat is just tender, about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
• Whisk the remaining 1 can broth with the masa harina in a bowl to make a creamy paste; stir into the chili. Continue simmering over low heat until the meat is almost falling apart, 30 minutes to 1 hour, adding up to 2 cups water if the chili gets too thick. Divide among bowls and top with onion and pickled jalapenos.

THE BEST AUTHENTIC TEXAS CHILI RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the stems off the dried chilies and remove all of the seeds. Place them in a blender with 1 cup of warm beef stock. Cover the blender and let them soak in the beef stock for 30 minutes.
• While the dried chilies are soaking, cut the beef chuck roast into 1/2 inch cubes and dice the white onion and jalapeños.
• In a bowl, mix together the chili powder, paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, masa flour, ground cinnamon, cocoa powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• After 30 minutes, puree the chilies and beef stock together to create a homemade chili paste. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a medium cast-iron Dutch oven. Brown the beef chuck cubes on all sides. If there is not enough room in the Dutch oven, brown the beef chuck cubes in batches. Do not remove the brown buts or liquid from the Dutch oven - this has all the flavor and will be used for the Texas Chili. Remove the browned beef chuck and set aside.
• Using the remaining liquid in the saucepan, sauté the onions till translucent. Then add the diced jalapeños.
• Deglaze the Dutch oven by adding the Shiner beer, remaining 2 cups of beef stock, and apple cider vinegar. Then scrape the bottom of the pan with a spatula to get all the bits of flavor incorporated.
• Add the beef chuck back into the Dutch oven along with the homemade chili paste, dry ingredient mix, and brown sugar. Mix all of the ingredients together and bring to a boil.
• Once it comes to a boil, lower the heat, slightly cover the Dutch oven, and simmer for 2 - 2.5 hours or until the beef chuck is tender. Make sure you stir the Texas Chili occasionally.
• Once the beef chuck is tender, serve the Texas Chili with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced jalapeños, and a side of cornbread.

TEXAS CHILI RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large skillet toast dried chiles just until fragrant. Place in hot water for 45 minutes to become pliable.
• Remove the stem, seeds and ribs of the chiles and place in a food processor or blender. Add the cumin, black pepper, salt and ½ cup of water. Pulse on high until the chiles are completely pureed.
• Cut the onion into 8 sections and add to the food processor/blender. Pulse until onions are diced.
• Cut bacon into small strips and dice. In a large stockpot over medium-high heat cook bacon until medium crisp. Remove bacon from pot and set aside, leaving grease in the pan.
• Add the diced chuck roast to the hot pan and until browned on all sides.
• Add the garlic and chile and onion paste. Stir in the beef stock and water and stir well. Return bacon to the pot and stir.
• Bring the pot to a light boil and reduce heat to a small simmer.
• Simmer for 3 to 4 hours, stirring frequently, until cooked down and thickened.
• Follow steps 1-3 from above to make the chili/onion paste.
• Place Instant Pot on Saute. Once hot, add 1 teaspoon olive oil and add in the diced bacon. Cook until crisp and remove with slotted spoon, leaving the pork fat in the liner.
• Add diced chuck roast and brown on all sides, working in batches if necessary.
• Remove beef and set aside. Add 1 cup of the water and deglaze the pot. Turn Instant Pot OFF/Cancel.
• Place the beef, bacon, and chili paste/onion mixture back to the Pot. Add 1 1/2 cups beef broth and stir.
• Pressure Cook/Manual on HIGH for 30 minutes. Once pressure cooking time expires allow for a Natural Pressure Release for at least 10 minutes. Release any remaining pressure.
• Optional - Continue to saute until desired thickness is reached.

TRUE TEXAS CHILI

Steps:

• 1. Place the chiles in a straight-sided large skillet over medium-low heat and gently toast the chiles until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Don't let them burn or they'll turn bitter. Place the chiles in a bowl and cover them with very hot water and soak until soft, 15 to 45 minutes, turning once or twice.
• 2. Drain the chiles; split them and remove stems and seeds (a brief rinse helps remove seeds, but don't wash away the flesh). Place the chiles in the bowl of a blender and add the cumin, black pepper, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/4 cup water. Purée the mixture, adding more water as needed (and occasionally scraping down the sides of the blender jar), until a smooth, slightly fluid paste forms (you want to eliminate all but the tiniest bits of skin.) Set the chile paste aside.
• 3. Return skillet to medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of the lard. When it begins to smoke, swirl skillet to coat and add half of the beef. Lightly brown on at least two sides, about 3 minutes per side, reducing the heat if the meat threatens to burn. Transfer to a bowl and repeat with 2 more tablespoons of lard and the remaining beef. Reserve.
• 4. Let the skillet cool slightly, and place it over medium-low heat. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of lard in the skillet; add the onion and garlic and cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the stock, the remaining 2 cups water and gradually whisk in the masa harina to avoid lumps. Stir in the reserved chile paste, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a spatula to loosen any browned bits. Add the reserved beef (and any juices in the bowl) and bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain the barest possible simmer (just a few bubbles breaking the surface) and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender but still somewhat firm and 1 1/2 to 2 cups of thickened but still liquid sauce surrounds the cubes of meat, about 2 hours.
• 5. Stir in the brown sugar and vinegar thoroughly and add more salt to taste; gently simmer 10 minutes more. At this point, it may look like there is excess sauce. Turn off the heat and let the chili stand for at least 30 minutes, during which time the meat will absorb about half of the remaining sauce in the skillet, leaving the meat bathed in a thick, somewhat fluid sauce. Stir in additional broth or water if the mixture seems too dry. If the mixture seems a bit loose and wet, allow it to simmer a bit more (sometimes we like to partially crush the cubes of beef with the back of a spoon to let them absorb more sauce). Adjust the balance of flavors with a bit of additional salt, sugar, or vinegar, if you like.
• 6. Reheat gently and serve in individual bowls with a dollop of sour cream on top and a lime wedge on the side.
