chili recipe

​

​

Ingredients Needed: 

​

2 1/2 lbs. - Meat. We like to use a combination of ground beef, 

chorizo, breakfast sausage, sweet Italian salsiccia and hot Italian salsiccia.

You can substitute beef chuck, ground turkey, vegan meats or any combination to your liking.

​

5 - 10 tablespoons - Firehouse Chilifire Chili Spice (10 FOR HOT!)

                                                

1 – 25oz tomato puree  

                                             

1 – 25oz diced tomatoes

                                          

2 tablespoons olive oil

​

2 tablespoons minced garlic

​

3 large - fresh jalapenos chopped ½” (substitute with jarred)

​

1 large - sweet onions chopped 

​

3 medium - peppers diced (1 red, 1 orange, 1/2 yellow, 1/2 green)

​

1 cup root beer or dark soda

​

Chili beans are optional.  -  1 lg. can

​

​

 

 

Cooking Instructions:

​

In a skillet, combine meats and cook to proper doneness. We like ours with a little charred for added flavor. Drain excess oil.

​

Add Firehouse Chilifire Chili Spice. Stir until mixed evenly. Cook on low being careful not to burn meat and spices.

​

In a chili pot, add olive oil, garlic, onion, peppers and jalapenos. Simmer for 15 minutes. Constantly stirring to avoid burning. 

​

Add meat, tomato sauce and diced tomatoes to chili pot and stir. 

​

Add 1 can of brown soda, (we prefer root beer). Stir. 

​

Bring to a boil then set on medium low heat. Stir often.

​

Cook for 30 minutes.

​

Makes 12 - 1 cup servings, or 6 firehouse servings (Ha!).

​

You can freeze leftovers. Our chili recipe is just as good if not better the next day. 

​

enjoy!
