Title: Deer/Elk/Bear Meat Chili
Post by: saylean on January 05, 2009, 04:29:40 PM: Tonights Dinner is as follows:

2 lbs ground meat (elk, deer, etc...tonight its deer)
1/2 1 large onion chopped (about a half cup)
3-4 spoons of minced garlic (or 3-4 cloves, minced)
1 can (14 1/2 ounce) diced tomatoes
1 cut up fresh tomatoe
1 can black beans
2 cans (16 ounces) baked beans, undrained ( I am using Bushes Baked)
3 tablespoons salsa
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (or onion salt)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup hot water

Brown ground meat, in a skillet. Drain fat if needed. Combine all ingredients in crock pot. Cover and simmer on high for two hours. The longer it simmers...the better she tastes.

Serves 6-8

But I would expect, any old style would work...thats what I love bout chilli...its not an exact science.

Post by: saylean on January 06, 2009, 09:23:22 AM: Last night was only the second time I have made it...and the first I used the chili powder...I like it with the powder for sure...but without using the chili powder, it has a sweet taste too it...I might like that better... ;)

Either way though, you wont go wrong. :P
