3 tablespoon Chili powder (the mccormick cayanne pepper chili powder is awesome)
1 tablespoon Paprika
2 tablespoon Pepper (fresh ground if possible)
1/4 teaspoon Salt (I use fresh ground vs table salt)
Instructions
Place the Stewed Tomatoes, chili powder and Tomato paste in the Stock Pot, place burner on low.
Brown the sirloin tip, it should be rare. Slice into 1 x 1/2 inch cubes, place in Stock Pot
Fry up the bacon, making sure its crisp. The bacon must be crisp when it enters the stock pot, or it will come out soggy and limp, and not very appetizing.
Cook ground beef and sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Place in Stock Pot
Grind the Cumin seeds with Pestle, Saute the cumin seeds in the olive oil, stirring constantly (they will burn if you’re not careful), removing from heat once brown.
Place the drained meat into stock pot along with the Garlic, Habaneros, Carrots, Jar’s of Sweet Red peppers, Green Peppers, Green Onion, Corn and whiskey. Adding the mushrooms and bean’s last.
Stir the pot well, ensuring an even consistency.
Place the cumin/olive oil mixture, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, Paprika, Hot Sauce and black pepper in the stock pot.
Cover pot, Set burner to Medium, Stir the pot every 20 minutes, for min of 4 hours. The longer it cooks, the more even the flavor will be.
Notes
Spoon even amounts into large bowls, garnish with Thick Sour Cream (Restaurant Style) and Grated Cheese. Serve with Thick cut Italian Bread.
