Garden Chili
-
1 Lb ground venison (from the garden)
1 Red or green bell pepper (from the garden)
1 Large or 2 medium onions diced (from the garden)
6 Large tomatoes
1 Tablespoon minced garlic (or to taste)
1 Tsp salt
1-2 Tsp black pepper
Mexican style Chili powder (to taste)
1 Tsp Ground Cumin
1 Tablespoon sugar
Tomato paste for thickening desired consistency ( I use tomato paste because I do not care for the taste of tomatoes that have cooked down as I feel they have somewhat of a burnt taste)Brown burger, drain if needed. Add onions and peppers and cook until just starting to get soft. Add all remaining ingredients and cook for about 1 hour or until thoroughly hot. Add tomato paste until desired consistency is reached. ( I make chili somewhat on the thicker side)
Enjoy with cornbread, corn chips, over MASHED POTATOES or alone. Yes, over mashed potatoes! If ya haven’t tried it, ya should! It’s amazing!

Sounds good

Sounds good indeed. But garden, and Chili don’t mix well. There is vegetable soup, and there is Chili. You can combine them, but it doesn’t equal “garden chili”

mikemikemike Spoken from the mouth of a true purest! Likely you don’t care for beans in chili as well…

mikemikemike, it is “garden” chili because all of the main ingredients ( onion, peppers, tomatoes and venison all came out of my garden )!
I have always put these vegetables in my chili as well as the venison but I have never put either peppers or burger in vegetable soup! Lol! Just my take on it!

I raise garlic, white onions, tomatoes jalapenos and bell peppers in the garden every year and my wife cans a chili mix that we use mostly for chili. Brown 1 1/2 bag of burger from meat processor add an envelope of chili seasoning, 1 quart of the chili mix and 2 to 3 cans of chili beans and chili is ready in less than 30 mins. We keep pot in fridge, I think it is a little mild but it provides a quick, easy, hot lunch many days.

johnrufi2 Sounds like a good candidate for canning

Actually, I do like beans in what i call stew with beef, beans, and chili powder. I will also add some minced onion, poblano’s, and jalapeno’s. Thats Garden Stew.
