I had a treat last night. There is this local farmer right down the road. The guy is a beast. He has this badass little fruit and veggie stand. All grown on the property, and he runs the stand in the evening for a few hours. I've been shopping here for years, and this guy's produce is next level without fail. His prices are REALLY decent too. We got six huge ears of perfect corn, some on the vine tomatoes, a bag of plums, three of the freshest prettiest onions I've ever seen, and a head of garlic. Total bill was $6. We steamed some corn last night. Wow. Perfection is the word. Like I said, this guy is a beast. I always hit this dude up in September/October for his insane pepper fiesta. I make chilli. It's my [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] most requested thing I make. I go ALL OUT. I start with 8 or so assorted peppers and 3lbs of sirloin that we coarse grind ourselves. I am gonna do it once the weather cools down and the peppers are done. I'm also gonna use that opportunity to break out my Cannon DSLR and maybe even some KAAAAHBS for lighting and take some real pics...edit em on my PC and the whole nine yards. That's gonna be an epic post. Like I said, it's my number one most requested thing I've made, and I've shared it with at least 50 people. Everyone says I should enter a chilli cookoff with it, because it's that good. There is 3 secrets to the best chilli ever....I'll give ya the first one now, ya gotta wait for the others...lol: DO NOT fuck around when it comes to Chilli Powder. No weak chilli seasoning packets here. Go right for the McCormick Gourmet Chilli Powder or the Spice Islands one. We are using a whole $7 bottle, so don't cut corners here. I discovered the high end chilli powder after about the 10th time making chilli, and haven't looked back. Cumin too. We use about 60% of the same size bottle of Cumin. Same thing, get the good shit. That's a lot of the signature flavor. It is an all day affair. It takes about 3½ hours or so, so the right kettle is very important. I wish you all could taste it....it's one of the most addicting flavors ever. We literally cry when it's gone. And it costs about $50. I've always wanted to do a proper chilli essay with pics...like a blog..and this seems like the time. That way if someone wants the recipe, it's that easy to replicate. Okay, chili rant is done, considering IM NOT EVEN MAKING CHILLI!! Lol.
Mmmm.....Chilli.....
THEY'RE called KAAAAHBS Joe's dad's stuff
