Steak Chili... Yum

STEAK CHILI!

Friday night and life is good! Today started out with a workout at the Wellness Center, lunch at the China House with great friends, a tour of the Farm Show and picking out paint colors with my boys. BTW Paul has quite the eye for army green, and to top the evening off… Chili, Steak Chili!  It's like saying Bond, James Bond.  Ohhhh so much fun!

To start off… garlic, leaks and cilantro in butter and top with steak.  I like to use about 3 large cloves of garlic diced and about 1/3 of a leak chopped. Add to this a handful of cilantro, generously chopped. The steak  I used 3 T-Bones, use any of your choice, I marinade in hickory smoke for about an hour and thinly slice.

Sprinkle with Cumin, Salt and Pepper.

Add 1 Jalapeño, seeded, and ½ chopped sweet onion., Top this off with a generous amount of Taco seasoning.
Cover and simmer 2 hours.





Oh don’t forget to add several jiggers of liquid smoke and ½ a bottle of Corona Light.   This will make the world go round :).

Love the slow simmer.

 

 

 

When the steak is nice and tender. Add a can of black beans, and large can of chili beans, green chilies, Rotel, tomatoes, a sprinkle of crushed red pepper, onion and Bell Pepper.

Now to simmer and let it rest over night.  As most of my best Chili's go, they must "Soak" overnight.  ENJOY!
