Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork roast cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 lbs ground beef (You'll need the fat. This isn't health food.)
- 1/2 cup chili powder (Your local supermarket brand tastes like cardboard.)
- 1 huge onion roughly chopped
- 1 head garlic minced or pressed
- 8 New Mexican green chilies roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped.
- 1 tablespoon hot Hungarian paprika (This is legal. Paprika is a chili.)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 4 beef bouillon cubes
- 1 28-oz can crushed tomatoes (Don't worry. You won't even know they are there.)
- 1 12-oz bottle amber Mexican beer (Dos Equis, Noche Buena, or any Oktoberfest will do.)
- 1/4 cup Bourbon (One of those things that just happened)
- 2 squares bitter baker's chocolate -- (Not as weird as it sounds.)
- Salt to taste
Preparation
Sautee of the garlic and onions until translucent. Add of the meat, chili powder and brown. Salt the meat while cooking. Put into your chili pot. Cast iron is best. Repeat until all the meat is done. Put the rest of the ingredients in your chili pot and simmer for an hour. As in any recipe, the amount of ingredients is variable. Add more of anything you want, especially chilies.
