i made this stuff specifically to be left over. today is the first day i'm eating it.

3 lbs ground beef
2 lbs onions
1 lbs roasted poblanos (haven't tried this before)
1/2 bulb of garlic
3 lbs crush tomatoes
2 lbs kidney beans
6 pack of beer (3 for the pot and 3 for me)
a lot of chili powder, cayenne pepper, ground comino (that's how you can tell it's from san antonio, regular mexican cooking does not use cumin), black pepper, hot paprika, and salt to taste. probably a cup of dried spices if not more.

Your proportions are way off here. A cup of spices and three bottles of beer for 3lb of beef? Enjoy your soup.

what are you having?

I know you said "good" and this probably doesn't qualify, but I was a fattie and got $0.99 chix mcNuggets x4 at the McDonalds. Would have gone for the mcGangbang too but thats just ridiculous.

You could make that work. If its like how I make it, more than half that liquid will evap and reduce down to a flavorful chili-goo.

cook it down, obviously.


it may have been 2 bottles for the pot and 4 for me. the spices were dry so they wouldn't add to the liquid.

I went to noodles & co. Nothing really sounded good today b/c I happen to feel like total shit, but I figured I'd get something starchy and good there. Ended up with mac n cheese and chicken noodle soup. It was very good.

Don't make me walk down to your office and punch you in the balls. BTW, when we going to lunch? Funny we only work like half a mile from each other ...
