How To Make A Mean Hot Chunky Chili Con Carne

2017-09-11

My friends say I make a killer chili con carne, but when I make it from scratch I always de-gas my beans. My husband and I both suffer terribly when we eat a lot of beans, and that means buying canned chili can be a decision that we later regret.Get up before everyone else. I admit this is the hardest one for me, but if you do wake up first you can get your first cup of coffee or juice in peace, take a shower and some mornings even get dressed all by yourself.Are you a huge soup fan? Well with the crock pot you most likely will never want to ever open a can of soup in the future. You certainly want to try such absolute favorites as Chicken Tortilla Soup or possibly Roast Tomato-Basil soup. Basic slow cooker tasty recipes for a pot of soup are scrumptious and offer a little something for all. There will always be those long time absolute favorites of Manhattan clam chowder, New England clam chowder or even Easy Corn Chowder.Add a few teaspoons of finely chopped jalapeno to the onion and beef when you saute them for extra heat. For even more spiciness, you can add some dried cloves and cayenne to the chili in a slow cooker seasoning.Liner Bags. Slow cooker liner bags are available and nothing beats these bags when it comes to slow cooked chili clean up. Just line your slow cooker with a slow cooker liner bag, cook your slow cooker meal, and discard the bag after serving. In a pinch, these bags truly make slow cooker clean-up a breeze, but keep in mind that these slow cooker liners are wasteful, will cost you some money, and if you prepare an 8-10 hour recipe, your bag may not hold up completely.Emphasize slow cooker chili and planned over meals, using only a couple of ingredients from your shopping list. For example, a large package of ground beef on sale can be meat loaf, hamburgers, and chili during the week. One large cooked chicken has enough leftovers for a hotdish and barbecue or stir-fry.When you have combined all of the ingredients and placed them in the cooker, you can set the temperature to high and then cook the entire contents for about 8 hours. The reason cooking this chili is so convenient is because if you have to work or leave the house for an extended period of time, you don't have to worry about whether or not the meal is going to cook properly. The slow cooking process allows you to cook the chili over the 8 hours without having to watch it.Reading the specials chili con carne good housekeeping on a recent weeknight frogleg cakes and scallops poblano it seems that the kitchen is capable of a broader reach. Hopefully they'll expand their offerings as they regain a following.
