We think this is the best Texas chili recipe and the internet seems to agree. In this recipe, we use the flat of a brisket for creating tender morsels of chili meat that doesn't come out tasting like pot roast.
This recipe is in the style of Texas barbecue restaurants and is a chili recipe with no beans.
It's a bit like a chile con carne recipe, but we slowly simmer these chunks of beef until they are one solid "soup". In fact, you might find that using an immersion blender after the chili cooking gives you even more of a Texas quality chili. Just buzz it a few times to make it extra broken up and mixed well. :)
Ingredients Used:
• 4 slices thick cut bacon
• 3-4 lb. beef brisket, trimmed
• Kosher salt, pepper, onion powder - for liberally sprinkling on the meat while browning.
• 2 c. white onion, small diced (one large onion)
• 5 garlic cloves, pressed through a garlic press
• 1 T paprika
• 1 T. cumin powder
• 3 ½ T Texas chili powder, such as Mexene or Gebhardt’s
• ½ t. dried thyme
• ½ t. chipotle chile powder
• ½ t. salt
• 1 quart beef broth
• ½ c. strong black coffee (you can save this from your morning coffee)
• 28 oz. can whole tomatoes, in juice
I have full step-by-step instructions on the blog and you can read lots of reviews by readers who have won chili cookoffs using this recipe, made this chili and modified the recipe, or even substituted smoked brisket.

Well, Add another win to the batch! Ive never made chili in my life and I googled this and I won our communities Chili contest!! WHAT?! Beat 9 people! 🏅

@notsparks 4 месяца назад

I found this in a box of recipes I think I inherited from my grandmother for a Texas style chili powder similar to Mexene's. I grew up in rural East Texas, and she lived most of her life in El Paso. I don't know if it's her recipe or if someone gave it to her but I use it often as I can't find good Texas chile powder here. 4 dried ancho chiles 2 dried guajillo chiles 2 dried chile de arbol 2 tablespoons cumin seeds 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon dried oregano 2 teaspoons smoked paprika 1 teaspoon salt Remove the stems and most seeds from the dried chiles. The more seeds, the more intense the heat will be Tear the chiles into small pieces and set them aside Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the cumin seeds. Toast until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes, then transfer them to a plate. In the same skillet, add the chile pieces and toast them for about 30 seconds per side. Be careful not to burn them, as this makes the chili powder bitter. Transfer toasted chiles to the plate and allow them to cool. Once the chiles and cumin seeds have cooled completely, place them in a spice grinder. Add the garlic powder, dried oregano, smoked paprika, and salt. Grind the mixture until it's a fine powder. Do in batches so as not to overfill the grinder Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place Making this in smaller batches as needed is best as it loses flavor once ground up.

I just did a chili cook-off with this recipe on Saturday 04/30/23. It was all friends from my hunting club and there were 6 entries. I used a tougher elk roast for the meat which is very close to brisket in texture. Not only did it win, but it was in a completely different category with nothing else even close. People noted that just looking at the color they knew they were in for something good. The others all had beans, some had sausage, all were comparable and tasted pretty good, but this was the clear cut winner. The battle was for second place.

If anyone wants to thicken this up (or any chili) and also add another background flavor just mix 2 tbs of masa flour (corn flour) with a liquid until it's thick but flowable then add it in. Make sure you bring it to a boil first then back it down to get the full thickening effect.

@revgregory 5 месяцев назад

Another ingredient that will really amp up your chili that most people don't think about is chocolate, specifically I add a small amount of Dutch processed cocoa powder to my chili. My inspiration for doing so comes from Mexican mole sauces which combine chilies and chocolate.

@frankensplean 3 месяца назад

adding coffee is *not* unique. but glad you're now tuned into the idea. also thumbs up on the chocolate suggestion (especially for vegan-ish chili attempts).

@Jack_Stafford 3 месяца назад

I'm one of those people who was never a coffee drinker, never developed a taste for it and frankly the smell makes me nauseous but the chocolate powder sounds like a good idea, not sure what flavor the coffee would actually add, what would be a good substitute for that, coke maybe? Where is the point to get a little bit of bitter in the chili and rather than sweet Coca-Cola there is something else bitter that would work similar to coffee without that coffee taste and smell? As a side note, I always find it funny, it used to be the same way with cigarettes you either did it or you didn't and if you didn't smoke the smell is kind of repulsive and coffee is kind of a similar device in my opinion, if you didn't grow up with a coffee pot and the smell is unusual to you in the taste is acidic then it's just as gross smelling coffee brewing all the time as a non-smoker being forced to be in a room with second hand smoke. But I am confident that chili can bring us all together and there's a way to make it that doesn't include things like coffee lol

Eating one of those brisket cubes only after browning might be gross. I assume it has to braise for 2-4 hours like chef said to be chewable

@es330td Год назад

Try eating a browned but uncooked piece of brisket sometime and you'll understand why this question is moot. Brisket that has not been slow cooked is exceedingly tough. Bacon, on the other hand, just requires you make extra so you can snitch some before the rest goes in.

I looked up this brand of Texas chili powder and found on the ingredients "silicon dioxide", we all know what silicon is, it is a kind of plastic containing quartz, so in other words a kind of sand... plastic sand . The safety of this ingredient is questionable, but breathing the dust of it is outwardly listed as hazardous. So I will probably go for some natural chili pepper ingredients when making my chili seasoning !

@manoweb1 3 месяца назад

@@Jack_Stafford yeah ok, I guess if you use pounds of it at a time and eat it everyday, I could maybe see a little concern. Yeah we all know what those ingredients are and they're very commonly used in much more than chili powders lol. I work in manufacturing (FDA regulated facility) and your using and consauming those ingredients along with everyone else a lot more often than you think. So, I've been eating those brands for over 50 years, so I think I'll take my chances and keep making hella good chili. We all gotta die someday and I'm going out happy and full! When you see SiO2 on the label, it's usually because it got there from being grown in the ground. It has to be listed.... On the other hand when you see it in a form like R2Sio or silicone it is because all manufacturing facilities use it in manufacturing and processing mainly in the form of lubricants (FOOD GRADE). We've used those materials for over 20 years. The information out there on it is for everyone to see in their posted SDS, it isn't a conspiracy! I guess facilities could go back to using petroleum based stuff?! So I guess I'm saying, just quit tripping! You know nothing about what you're talking about, so why even chime in??

@@djevanoasikan2778 I like the video recipe better. I used a pre-trimmed brisket flat the first time and a fattier cut the second time. I got a better sear the first time, the second time there was a lot of beef fat in the bottom that I should've poured out and it seemed to have slowed the thickening process. The biggest difference I noticed was that she put the thyme in at the end in the video and in the recipe it goes in with the seasonings. I also added an equal amount of Mexican oregano which worked really well in this dish.

True texas chili doesn't have beans or tomatoes or any of that other stuff. Beef, onions, garlic, peppers, and seasonings basically. Her adding the tomatoes isn't original texas chili, but I'm sure it is still good. What most americans consider chili, includes beans, tomatoes, ground beef instead of cubed beef, etc. I prefer the texas style chili over the traditional american chili.

In my experience in winning A&M Snook Chilifest Gold twice (the only two times entered) the brisket cubes should only be browned on one side and never stirred while browning as that breaks the connection with the pot. They should not be crowded, stacked on top of each other or disturbed during the browning. If they are crowded, stacked or stirred then you are steaming the little steaks and losing valuable liquid. The coffee is a nice tip, our recipe uses a cup of coffee as well. This is a very accurate Texas chili recipe. Thumbs up.

As my Mormon friends like to say: oh my heck. Made this today and my wife loves it. When I met her I regaled her with my cooking, especially with flambe. Maybe helped her decide? Now I just add a ½ c of brandy to the sauce and let the alcohol steam off without burning the booze - actually better than having a flame in your dutch oven. That coffee is a nice trick - I used to use dark beer but coffee turned out better. And I never let my goulash turn that brown before and will never omit to do that now. Verdict: testing the meat at 1 hr = Dutch or English feed; at 2 hr = German or American fare; at 3 hr = French or Italian food. Ladies, think about this: coffee and cognac in the evening - he'll be fed, awake , happy and ready for anything.

Delicious for sure. Honest to the good Lord, we have more than a few similarities! I've learned what works best and what doesn't work at all over the years and you are spot on I think. There are a couple of things different - I use find a nice & pretty chuck roast and cut it up in same size chunks, and tendorize it. I like to control the fat on the meat. When I'm browning the meat I deglaze my dutch oven with a Texas Red/Lea & Perrins. It makes a little bit of some amazing gravy/sauce. The last batch of meat I take out, I leave the deglazed love in the pot and do my onions & garlic. I also only use Gebhardt!! It is just the best. I beat a guy at a company chili cook off who went on and on about his homemade chili powder. I was like whatever dude. It was a tough lesson. City boys and their crazy ideas. One thing I do add to bring a little heat is chipotle peppers/adobo sauce. Everybody uses chipotle these days, but I really love the smoky flavor it brings to the chili. I also use fire roasted tomatoes I think that same brand and break them up, it adds a nice flavor to the chili. My last ingredient is a little bit of Shiner. Some in the pot and some down me! Thanks for sharing your recipe! And people, real Texas chili ain't go no beans in it!!!!

I am trying Gebhardt's chili powder but if you want to try your hand at chili powder, I recommend pinquin peppers as the secret ingredient. They're about 70K on the Scoville scale (about the same as red pepper) but have a great smoky taste. Then add chipolte, New Mex and some other tasty peppers as you like. For filler. I really think the pinquin peppers will carry the day. Roast and grind. I like that you recommend nearly 4 T of chili powder, a lot of powder really helps.
