Looks like a homerun man: that is beyond excellent for a first try.

Agree. Looks very appetizing.

my award-winning ground (minced) turkey chilli


made with a generous dollop of this

I'm not a sweet potato fan either. But, if you cut it into big spears, include some carrot and parsnip, curry the lot and then bake it it does make for a nice side to a fall dish.

Ooh that lemon gives me ideas Maybe if I get some lemon involved it will make it seem a bit less cloying, acidity to balance the sweetness.

I like them with more salt than I would normally use and either morita or chipotle chile. The fire or smoke flavour and the heat from the chile really temper them

Wow, I haven't been here in a while, and my first post is in the food thread.
What's wrong with me?

Sadly, no pics as it's been a while since I made it, but trust me, it was great!

A few weeks ago, while in the throes of consecutive ice storms, I made a big batch of East Texas Red Chilli.
I did add a couple of extras that a real Texan might scoff at, but I am daring.

3# cubed beef
1# hot Italian sausage
2 LG onions

All browned in oil.

A couple tsp of minced garlic
1 Tbs oregano
4 Tbs paprika
1tsp cumin
Salt
White pepper
28 oz each tomato sauce and whole tomatoes
About 5 or 6 each of 4 kinds of dried peppers. Poblanos and anchos for flavor, and pequinos and some Thai for heat.
And for a surprise, about 5 oz dark chocolate.

All simmered for a couple of hours.

Man, was it good. Nobody could identify the chocolate flavor until I told them about it.

Found a nice big flatbread thing at a local bakery and made a pizza with a bit of pesto, fresh garlic, tomato, grilled artichoke heart, chopped bocconcini, and spicy soppressata. When it came out of the oven I finished it with some fresh arugula. Very nice.

Chili is a noble thing. When I'm not eating like an insane 8 year old I make con carne and a white turkey chili.

Just going into the oven. Roasted New potatoes with onions and lemon.
A small pork roast will follow.
