Ingredients
- 4 jalapeoo chiles
- 1 onion
- 1 maize flour
- 1/4 masa harina
- 900 gr beef chuck
- 475 ml beef stock
- 350 ml beer
- 230 ml tomato sauce
- 34 gr chili powder
- 28 gr kidney suet (chopped)
- 7 gr paprika
- 7 gr garlic powder
- 6 gr cumin
- 3 gr pepper
Cut beef into 1- half inch cubes. Brown the meat and onions in oil or fat. Add the tomato sauce, beer, beef stock, chiles, cumin, garlic, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the Chili Powder. Simmer the chili over a low head for 2 hours until the meat is tender. To thicken, make a thin paste of the masa and water. Quickly stir this into the chili -if done too slowly it will lump. Add the remaining Chili Powder and Paprika. Simmer for an additional 15 minutes. Remove the Jalapenos and serve. [CASI (Chili Appreciation Society International) chili-cookoff winners tend to use blended chili powder and also Jalape�o#o chiles, which are usually removed before serving. The beef is cubed, and masa, which is flour made from ground dried maize available in Latin markets, is used to thicken the chili.] The Whole Chile Pepper Book by Dave DeWitt and Nancy Gerlach
