NANA'S CHILI

Steps:

• 1. Brown ground beef. Drain fat and set aside. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in heavy pot over medium high heat, adding onions when hot. Saute for 4-5 minutes. Add bell pepper and garlic. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes more. Add black pepper, ground cumin, ground chipotle pepper, crushed red peppers and chili powder, while continually stirring until spices begin to stick to bottom of pot and brown (30-45 seconds). Quickly add 3 cups of hot water. Add tomato puree, diced tomatoes and the juice they were packed in. Add kidney beans and salt. Add the ground beef. Stir when chili begins to boil. Reduce heat to low and cover. Ideally the chili should be simmered 3 hours to let all the flavors blend together. Stir about every 15 minutes. If you don't have 3 hours, use less chipotle and crushed red peppers.

NANA'S BARBEQUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine ketchup, vinegar, sugar, onion, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Season with Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, allspice, celery salt, and mustard powder. Simmer over medium low heat for 5 minutes.

NANA'S BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Shake 1 tablespoon flour with salt in a large, resealable plastic bag until combined; add beef and shake to coat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown beef in the hot butter, about 3 minutes per side. Stir mushrooms, onion, and garlic into beef; cook and stir until garlic is fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer beef and vegetables to a bowl, leaving drippings in skillet.
• Melt 2 more tablespoons butter in skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir 3 tablespoons flour in the hot butter until smooth; stir tomato paste into flour mixture. Whisk beef stock into mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is thickened and bubbling, about 5 minutes.
• Return beef and vegetables to skillet and stir to coat with sauce. Reduce heat to very low and simmer until beef is tender, 2 to 3 hours. The longer it cooks, the more tender the meat will be. Just before serving, stir sour cream and white wine into beef mixture and heat through. Do not boil.
