The Food Thread

[cbrenthus]

So this was not grilled and made inside (Trying to justify this thread haha). My phone oversaturates reds to the point of absurdity, so its not this red in person

Bison, bacon, bell pepper chili

Variation of this chili recipe
https://www.recipegirl.com/halftime-chili/

Substitutions:
Instead of canned tomato/tomato sauce I blended 6 bell peppers to make the sauce base
Instead of 3lbs ground beef I used 1LB thick cut bacon, 1LB ground bison

Something about the wording about the color of this chili reminded me of this story:

Back in the 80s, my dad got into cooking. He decided to make this chili recipe he had in his big cookbook. It was very spicy, but you put in a block of goat cheese to cool it down. It was looking good, but then he put the cheese in, and it turned pink. He didn't want pink chili, so he threw in some red food coloring. That didn't look right either, so he started putting in different food coloring to try to make it right.

Well, in the end, the chili came out baby turd green, and we talked about it for years!
