BEAUTIFUL!! I did not look at the recipe but I aways toast my spices first, then grind. And a little left over beef brisket does wonders
(so does dark beer and tequila ; FOR THE COOK too!)

Wonderful news. Congratulations.

Nice work. Great, now I need to make chili too. My favorite part is the way you did that over a couple of weeks. Easy money that way.

Skillz brother!!
Looks fantastic.
Street Cred.
Enjoy that win.

Oops! Sorry for my confusing ref to Texas. Misplaced you. That is a great accomplishment ANYWHERE! Looks amazing.

Thank you all for the congrats, and help with the ideas. I had about a pound of the smoked chuck, and some of the dry seasoning mix leftover, so tonight we're doing round two, this time with ground beef instead of pork; I didn't really eat but a few ounces of the original batch at the tasting - it was otherwise devoured. This time I'm leaving out the hot sauce which had cayenne in it - my wife doesn't do well with cayenne. It is in a dutch oven now in the oven at 295 degrees. Will cook at least an hour. Pic later.

And... here is round two... it took longer than expected, so we'll eat it tomorrow - reverted to grilled velveta sandwich tonight, yummm!

Congrats on rolling the office opposition. Make sure to rub it in and remind them on a regular basis.

What kind of beans and how many?

[treesmacker]

One can of Bush's Best Mixed Chili Beans, and one can of kidney beans - both cans with juice.

Really, the seasonings in the Bush's didn't count for much, being there were so many other seasonings already. So, just kidney and pinto beans would work just as well.

very cool, I've never had the guts to compete. keep at it!
