Billy Bob Barnett's World's Largest Honky-Tonk Texas Style Chili http://groups.google.com/groups?q=texas+chili&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=3aiaja%24f0v%40junior.wariat.org&rnum=2 10 lb chili ground meat (coarse) 1 c chili powder (hot) 1 c chili powder (mild) 3/4 c paprika 1/2 c comino (cumin) 1/4 c garlic powder 1/4 c salt 1/8 c crushed red chili 1 lb suet 3 qts water 1/4 c sugar (twenty min before pullin' it off the fire) Add fat first, then meat and seasonings to fat. Add water after it cooks 2 hrs. Cook 3 hrs total. Stir occasionally. Now that's Texas Chili! (Although I usually throw in Shiner Bock Beer for part of that water.) This is real good with raw chopped onion on top (plus the ubiquitous saltines). Kathy Heacock (kheacock@utmmg.med.uth.tmc.edu)
