Saw his cookup / write-up & remembered this......if I'm not too brain dead, I don't think this has appeared here yet.........
OK......from a throwdown on Smoke Ring...........
This outdoor cooking thing is getting interesting.......
1st off, I cut some boughs, so I could make a shelter whilst the chili was cooking....or make a travois, if I needed toget out of town.....
Shot & rubbed a Tri-tip...
Smoked for 4 hrs, 235.......
Softened up another one from out of the freezer & condensed down some beef goo....
Chunked 'em both up & made tri-tip burnt ends.....
After that was going for 1/2 hr....started with onion, caesra, green chiles, tomato in a second pot.....
( added that avacado in the pic just for Jess, didn't end up in the mix )
( Also considered using the pasta-roni to try to beat DP at his own spagetti chili game....)
Onion in beef goo...
30~45 minutes & jumped the beef into the big pot.....
Added S & P , California chili powder & granulated garlic at this point....
About this point, the dawgs gave up....they already had part of a tri-tip for lunch...
Stewed with the lid on for approx. 3 hours.....200 deg.
Added just a little Ron's sauce near the end, so I could actually call it a "Bowl Of Red"
Seein' as how a bunch of people are cramped up by cold weather, I figgered we'll go Penguins vs. Flamingoes on this one....
With some crisp Ritz.....
Not a huge fan of cooked tomato stuff, so I aimed for a more beefy taste with a smooth afterburn....came out just right for what I aimed for
Smokey,some tomatoey, beef just in above that with a good taste of onion & then the chile stuff was a smooth burn at the end, I'm happy......
