Directions
Grand Prize Chili, This is an actual grand prize chili recipe and it comes from the “Texas bragging rights” recipe book., I do not consider myself a good cook at all but I like to try new things. That said my girlfriend’s family has a very, very competitive quarterly cook-off competition and this time around it was chili. I decided to give it a try even though I am not a big chili fan. I researched many recipes trying to find something unique but not overly difficult as a starting point and came across this recipe. I learned a lot of tips from reading the reviews and I also watched about 12 YouTube videos of chili champs making their recipes and looked for tips and consistently used ingredients to add. That said used this recipe and made the following changes: I replaced the chuck roast with 2 lbs of ground chuck and 1 lbs of diced stew meat, Replaced the paprika with smoked paprika, Added 5 pieces of bacon cut thin with scissors, Added a can of fire roasted tomatoes, Substituted beer Miller Lite for water, Cut the chili powder to 3 tablespoons, Deleted salt, added a tablespoon of brown sugar, added a splash of tabasco and a splash of Texas Pete’s hot sauce and let it simmer for at least an hour. 6 entries and 10 judges and my chili won!!! I am sitting here still in shock but it happened. Thank you so much Just Cher and Food.com!, I do not consider myself a good cook at all but I like to try new things.
