Over-the-Top Chili: https://blackstoneproducts.com/blogs/recipes/over-the-top-chili

Ingredients
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped yellow onion
2 fresh jalapeƱos, diced
4–5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons Bacon Up (or preferred cooking fat)
½ cup chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons coriander
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 (15 oz) cans diced tomatoes
1 (14 oz) can Rotel
1 (14 oz) can tomato sauce
12 oz tomato juice
1 container unsalted beef broth
1 tablespoon Knorr tomato and chicken powder
1 can kidney beans
2 lbs ground chuck
2 teaspoons Essentials blend seasoning
2 teaspoons Outlaw BBQ seasoning
1 teaspoon Blackening seasoning

Directions
1. Get the pellet grill up to 250°F. Preheat the griddle to low heat.

2. Chop celery, onion, jalapeƱos, and garlic. Add 1 tablespoon Bacon Up to the griddle and sautƩ the celery, onion, and jalapeƱos until softened. Add the garlic near the end.

3. Place a Dutch oven on the griddle or pellet grill and add 1 tablespoon Bacon Up. Add all the spices (chili powder, cumin, coriander, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne, smoked paprika) to the Dutch oven and bloom them for 1–2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Add diced tomatoes, Rotel, tomato sauce, tomato juice, beef broth, kidney beans, and Knorr tomato and chicken powder into the Dutch oven. Stir well to combine.

5. Season the ground chuck with Essentials blend seasoning and mix it into the meat. Shape the meat into a large ball and coat it with Outlaw BBQ seasoning and Blackened seasoning.

6. Place a wire rack over the Dutch oven and position the meatball on the rack. Cook in the pellet grill until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, approximately 1 hour.

7. Remove the meatball, chop it into bite-sized pieces, and add it to the Dutch oven.

8. Return the Dutch oven to the pellet grill and simmer for an additional 2–3 hours to develop flavors.

9. Remove the Dutch oven from the grill and serve the chili with your favorite toppings, such as smoked cheddar cheese, pickled jalapeƱos, and sour cream.

  1. Sorry Texans… I like lots of beans in my chili! – We need 'em up here in Canada – The "Natural Gas" helps keep us warm. šŸ˜‰ – Cheers!

  2. Beans, Yes! Plus it makes more Chilli and you can feed more people. I have even added mushrooms to mine.

  3. This looks great .. I have done Over the top many times and love it . I set aside pulled pork, brisket and chicken for my chili as well .. I add it to my dutch oven a and add ground sausage to the meat ball.

  4. Beans were traditionaly used to replace some of the meat because of the cost/availability

  5. Chili is too loose, cut back on the salt and add crushed corn tortilla chips to thicken it up. As for beans, yes. Some cinnamon and cocoa powder adds depth to the flavor

  6. Looks good. Laughed when you said it'll cook for an hour and reduce at the end but when it came out it had the exactly the same amount of liquid. Thanks for the recipe!
