This was the World Champion red chili at the
Tropico Gold Mine, California, cookoff about 20 years
ago.
One of our readers requested this recipe about
a month ago - it appears to be a legendary recipe!
This is a robust, flavorful red chili that is at least
90% meat. You may want to adjust the jalapeno
to the heat tolerance of those you are serving it
to. It almost looks like a chunky sloppy joe, and
you actually could serve
it that way - on a bun or
in pita pockets or even on hot dogs.
Like many chilis, it freezes well so you could make
lots of this ahead
of time and freeze it.
