John Gambill’s Texas Chili, Having searched for the perfect chili recipe for years this is a savory and spicy concoction that I’ve developed to suit my own tastes. It’s quite a hit in my household., We had never had Texas Chili before. I followed the recipe with the only difference being the brand of bloody mary mix because our Kroger didn’t have the brand called for. I even followed the suggestion of letting it sit in the fridge overnight and continued to cook it the following day. Unfortunately, DH was the only one in the family who liked this., PERFECTION!!! I know some of the ingredients sound a little off/weird but don’t skip a single one! My DH will not eat beans unless they’re re-fried beans, it’s a texture thing, but he does back flips over this bean-free chili! I find it helpful to measure and mix all the dry ingredients the night before as I have a tiny kitchen w/no counter space, plus I like to take the time to “freshly crush” all the dried herbs so the flavors can mingle that much better. A one gallon bag works wonders for that. And if you think that far in advance marinating the “beef” in beer for 2-3 days before it’s just AMAZING!!! I cannot rave enough about this chili! Easy to control the spicy by adjusting the jalapeno amount. It goes terrific with “Corn Muffins Like Kenny Rogers Roasters” I top those muffins with vanilla cinnamon honey butter and it’s sooooo good no one ever gripes that I didn’t make a dessert! FABULOUS STUPENDOUS PERFECTION!!!
