Darren's texas chili (ie NO BEANS people!!!)



Pardon the crap-tacular blackberry cell photo :D

Its been good chili weather, and some buddies have managed to shoot some deer and make venison sausage which makes great chili.

You northerners dont start telling me it needs beans. you need to learn how to eat. :)


2 medium to large yellow onion coarse chop
3-4 big cloves garlic (crushed/mashed)
2Tbsp oil

Oil in dutch oven, heat. Sauté garlic and onion till nice and see thru color

1 link sausage
2 lb stew meat ½ cubed


If using sausage that’s precooked add it last don’t cook. Add raw meat till grayish brown… try not to brown too much.

Once meat is “ready”…

Add 28-30oz diced tomatoes
1 6oz can tomato paste
1 10oz can rotel tomato/green chili
1 small can 8oz tomato sauce

3Tbsp Chili Powder
2Tbsp Ground cumin
2.5 tsp salt (I just threw in a palm full)
2.5 tsp cayenne pepper.

Lower heat simmer 2 hours.

I added 6-8 squares of milk chocolate about 5 minutes before the end and let it melt in and stirred well. Let sit over night.


If you dont have venison sausage, put another pound of stew meat in. If you like it with a bit more fire, add another .5 tsp or so of cayenne, of chop some fresh chili's of your liking and drop em in.
