I don't buy expensive Chili Powder and I don't like the DARK Chili powder, but I'm not loyal to one particular brand.eherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10254086724584313135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359789047770451934.post-33967978263495018162013-10-07T08:00:25.810-05:002013-10-07T08:00:25.810-05:00SO, if I don't have beer, use an equal amount ...SO, if I don't have beer, use an equal amount of water, right???

I thought it was OK. I have made 5 lbs. of meat with 1 C. of chili powder and it was so hot and spicy we could hardly eat it. The only reason I put "Don't use a light beer." is because it has more depth of flavor with out. Light beer is still better than water in my opinion. I'm enjoying hearing different ideas!

By then, it was too late, but I brought it to a pot luck supper, and it received rave reviews. <br />Tonight, I cooked the chili with lean ground beef and cooked the seasoning vegetables with the ground beef in the same pot at the same time. So, I didn't to cook the vegetables in oil in a separate pot and didn't have to drain the ground beef. Also, I added some red wine (since I was drinking red wine), and the result was delicious.Brian Weimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10027423656423018435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359789047770451934.post-36153605546644202022011-01-21T22:29:16.626-06:002011-01-21T22:29:16.626-06:00Sounds delicious!
