Alright! I been promising for a while now to post my chili recipe. Well, it is finally getting cool enough outdoors here in Illinois to warrant the need for a little internal warm up. So, this is it. Dwayne's Medium Hot (According to Texas Standards, anyway) Fuego Chili con Carne y Frijoles.
Here are the ingredients you will need:
2-3 pounds chuck steak, cut into 3/4" cubes (trimmed to cut out the fat)
1 - 29 oz. Tomato Sauce
1 - 15 oz. can Dark Red Kidney Beans (drained and rinsed)
1 - 15 oz. can Pinto Beans (drained and rinsed)
2 - Medium Yellow onions, finely chopped (1/4" yields about 2 cups)
3 - Green Bell Peppers, seeded and finely chopped (1/4" yields about 1 1/2 cups)
4 - large (3-4") Jalapeno Peppers, seeded and chopped (1/4" yields about 3/4 cups)
5 - Cloves of fresh Garlic (more or less to taste - I use about 10 cloves)
3 - TBSP Commercial Chili Powder
2 - TBSP Ground Cumin
1 - TBSP Dried Oregano
1 - TSP Dried Sweet Basil
1 - TSP Cayenne Pepper (Crushed Red Pepper Powder)
1 - TSP White Pepper
Add salt to taste.
In a large skillet put a small amount of EVOO in and heat up. Add cubed Chuck Steak to skillet and just sear the meat to lock in the juices, just browning the outside well. Drain off any excess oil (should not be much) and set aside.
Combine all remaining ingredients except salt in a 6 quart crock pot, and set to high. Once it starts to simmer a bit, add the browned chuck steak, and add hot water to bring level about 1" from the top of crock pot. Let this simmer on High setting until it begins to bubble around the edges, then reduce to Low setting and let 'er ride for about 6-8 hours. Once all the veggies are nice and tender (and opaque), the meat should just fall apart in your mouth. This is when you want to add the salt to taste. If you salt beforehand, you will find it makes the meat a little tough, since it tends to dehydrate it.
Spoon a modest portion into your favorite bowl, and top with your choice. I like cheddar/jack cheese and dig in. Remember, this will warm the palette after a few bites, so take it nice and slow. I also add a liberal amount of Habanero Hot Sauce to mine, but I would not recommend this to anyone who has not tried it before. It can be a mind-bender.

Sidi is really growing, though Chili is still bigger than she is. He loves her and she is a little terror! Still, he is very gentle when she is so rough.
I have found it is really hard to take a photo of a black dog with black eyes! :)

I took this photo outside since it was such a cloudy, dark day (too dark in the house), and it looks so much brighter (and overexposed) than usual! Right as I was taking it, it started to pour, so I got lucky ....
They put these peppers in the ubiquitous Thai Spicy Salads, such as Som Tam. Every time I tried the spicy salads, I couldn't quite finish them, and I kept thinking I got an especially spicy batch. However, after 5 salads, I was forced to conceded that I was truly just ... Farang.

If there's one teeny tiny advantage to living in the small town of Findlay, OH, it has to be that I'm walking distance from Imagine That! Leslie is one of the coolest film photography buffs around, and aside from being a wealth of photographic knowledge, she's got as many cameras as she does camera facts! This time around, it was a quick day trip with the 35mm compact wonder, the Olympus XA-4.
Stay tuned for a full review on the FPP!
The XA-4 was the only "macro" enabled camera of the series, and the only one sporting a wider, albeit slower (f/3.5), 28mm lens. Couple this with a minimum focusing distance of up to 1ft., and you've got yourself a very cool combination for walk-around shooting.
While walking around downtown Findlay, OH testing this nifty 35mm compact out, Lauren, Strudel, and I stopped for a quick bite to eat at Archies, an ice cream and snack shack. Heavy calorie consumption and the American lifestyle ensued. ;)

Chili and corn bread has to be one of the most perfect combinations in culinary history.
The sweet toastiness of the corn bread provides the perfect backdrop to appreciate the spicy, savory chili -- and vice versa.
... a flavor explosion that will tickle the taste buds ;0)
The chilis may also be referred to as cili padi (cili pronounced as "chili") in parts of Malaysia because their small size reminds people of the small-grained rice eaten as a staple in the region. In the northern parts of Malaysia, this chili is known as cabai burung or bird chili, as birds eat this variety of chili - and some believed the spiciness will make the birds sings better :)

Back at my hometown Ipoh and visited the Pasar Besar Ipoh ( Ipoh General Market ) with my dad, who loves to cook. While he was doing his shopping, I took the opportunity to snap some photos around.
