  1. I make my chili in a very similar fashion. I use a combination of anchos and chipotles for smoke flavor and a little heat, and guajillos snd new mexicos for their fruitiness. I keep vacsealed "mole packs" at the ready for whenever I get a hankering for chili, or carnitas or whatever. Only real difference is I add rotel and tomato paste. I brown the paste a little bit with the onions and garlic, then add the rotel and half a can/bottle of beer. Reducr by half, add the beef back to coat it in the sauce, then add the beef stock. For thickener I use crushed tortilla chips.

  2. This looks so good…doing it at some point.
    I really don't like straining Guajillo skins…so though…like chopped up freezer bags..
    I use my vertical crushing type juicer now (Omega Vert) and use the soaking water to flush remnants out…so much easier.

  3. Do you have a source for Pasilla Oaxaca? i can get them at a very high price *$75 per pound, do you know a source priced fairly?

  4. This would go great with some red rice or with some mashed potatoes to soak up all that sauce🔥

  5. THEIF! This is just Texas Red Chili. We just thicken with masa, instead of rolling the beef in flour. Looks damn nice!

  6. I think the original recipes should always be done without mid-century industrial effect, then retrofit to transhuman cell culture.

  7. This process is the stepping off point to a million different types of stews and such in Mexican and southwestern American culture. Just brilliant

  8. I know it’s not conventional, but I like to add a small can of tomato🥫paste for the sweetness and tang. Yum!😋

  9. Did you know if you salt the steak and then leave it for at least 40 minutes something wonderful happens, when you fry steak you want the moisture to be on the inside and not the outside, when you salt a steak you will see it become wet because the salt has drawn the moisture out, now if you leave it salted for at least 40 minutes the moisture is drawn back into the steak along with the salt, this makes the steak far less chewy.
