This recipe was acquired here years ago. I can't recall how the owner is though.
Quote:
1 pound London broil, trimmed and diced
1 pound center cut pork loin, trimmed and diced
3 slices of bacon, coarsely chopped (I think I'll try more next time - never too much bacon!)
4 ounces ground Sicilian sausage or hot sausage
2 cups coarsely chopped onion
2 cups finely chopped onion
2 cups coarsely chopped green or red pepper
5 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 small jar medium-hot chilies (I couldn’t find med-hot so I used mild green chilis & about 1 Tbs. jalapeņos - I'm using more jalapeņos next time)
3 (6 oz.) cans of tomato paste
1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatos.
1 medium can of pinto beans (I'm not a fan of pintos so I used Brook’s brand hot chili beans)
1 cup BBQ sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
Juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon of molasses
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons peanut oil-divided
3 cups water
Dry spices:
1/4 teaspoon powdered cloves
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon sage
1 teaspoon basil
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 whole cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon cilantro
4 tablespoons chili powder (I'm a fan of chili powder so I used 5 or 6)
Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to a five quart pot over medium-high heat. Add the butter and the coarsely chopped onion and cook until carmelized.
Once carmelized, add the beef, pork, bacon and sausage, stirring occasionally until browned. Add the lime juice, stir, and reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and 2 cans of tomato paste, stir, and let simmer for 20 minutes.
Increase the heat to medium-high, stir in remaining peanut oil, finely chopped onion, red or green peppers, chilies, tomato paste, crushed tomatos, bar-b-que sauce, all dry spices, and 3 cups of water. Stir, cover, and let cook for twenty minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low, stir and cook for forty minutes stirring often.
Increase heat to medium, stir in pinto beans, hot sauce, and molasses, cover and cook for thirty minutes.
