***Edit for transparency ***
This wasn't my recipe, this was posted by friend/member of another hunting forum, Dallas Keith, it is by far the best chili I have ever eaten. I buy the powders in bulk and prebag them to make it quick and easy.
Original Chili - Slightly Modified
- 5 lbs of chili ground venison or beef
- 2 lbs "Hot" breakfast sausage
Brown meat and drain fat.
- 32 oz can of Tomato Sauce or Paste (depends on how thick you want it, I use Paste)
- 32 oz chicken broth
- 32 oz of beef broth
- 2 cans "hot" Rotel drained (depends how hot do you want it)
- 6 oz chili powder (Red Meskin, Anaheim, or your favorite)
- 2 Tbls garlic powder/
- 2 Tbls onion powder
- 1 oz salt
- 1 Tbls black pepper
- 1 oz cumin
- 1 tbsp cayenne pepper (a little more if you want it hot)
- 1 Tbls Sriracha chili sauce (a little more if you want it really hot)
- 1/3 cup of Whataburger Spicy ketchup (don't laugh)
Mix all ingredients in a large crockpot or stockpot, add browned meat and simmer for
about 2 hrs, stirring occasionally
It's easier to thin it out versus trying to thicken it up, you can add more broth as
needed to get the consistency you want
