Catastrophe Chili
May 10th, 2008 by mr | Category: MR|Kitchen |
- 4 cans of beans (I use 2 black / 2 red kidney)
- 3 cans of diced tomatoes
- 2 granny smith apples, shredded
- 1 small can of chipotle peppers en adobo, blended/processed
- chopped celery (optional, but recommended. 0-5 ribs, depending on how much you want to cut the heat of the chipotles)
Season with bullion, a good shot of olive oil, cumin, garlic, a bit of salt (I like Crazy Jane’s), and maybe a bit of lime juice.
Combine it all in a BAP (Big Ass Pot), add liquid as needed, bring it to a boil, and simmer for 10-45 minutes, however you like the beans.
Serve with crackers or rice (thanks, Drew!) and fresh veggies + dip. A bold dose of cinnamon in a bowl of this chili will take it in a completely different direction.

This is fucking awesome. I think I’m going to make this soon. I made this chili the other day, using garbanzo beans and corn as well as the beans, tomatoes, chilies, etc. BUT, I added both BBQ sauce and honey as well as a shit ton of cumin, chili powder and hot sauce, SO, it was super sweet and super spicy. SPICY!

so, i’m sitting eating my damn bagel with spray butter for breakfast, and here i stumble on the most awesome-sounding recipe ever. i pretty much just want to go throw my bagel in the garbage and make this instead. the bbq sauce/honey business sounds amazing, too.
that’s it. i’m skipping church. see you tomorrow, howie.

Wow, I need to get some more recipes up here! This was posted at Drew’s request; I made it for the Official Fifty Bears In A Fight Dinner and MarioKart Wii Party Of The Century last weekend.
