I usually buy individual packages of ground pork, ground turkey, ground chicken and ground beef to mix in what portions I want. .... that full combination is very good in a good old standard meat loaf. And Texas Red is the official food of Texas....without beans no matter what chili recipe you were raised on.
It all sure sounds good to me. One thing that I have noticed is that if I cook it up one day and then eat it 1, 2 or (if frozen-in) many days thereafter...that it seems to taste better than freshly made. I seem to notice a depth of flavour that isn't there the first evening. I was surprised to learn that you folks there do not use beans in your chilli, but i guess that taste and tradition determine the ingredients and cooking times. I cook mine for several hours before eating and freezing-in. This site is so good for learning tips and tricks for all sorts of things....food included. Thanks a mil for taking the time to include your info as well. Thanks again for your input as well--Toni en Evil-R.
