James Coney Island is a famous hotdog restaurant here in Texas. My family loves their hotdogs and chili, so I found this recipe to try and re-create their chili at home. While I don't think it is the exact recipe, I do think it comes pretty close!
Ingredients:
2 1/2 lbs chuck steaks (tenderized and diced finely)
2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans beef broth
5 1/4 cans water
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cans whole tomatoes, with the juice (food process,strain seeds and pulp, measure two cups for chili, save remainder for another recipe)
1 tablespoon paprika
5 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon season salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon msg (optional)
5 tablespoons saltine crumbs (finely ground)
4 tablespoons mesa flour
1 -1 1/4 cup water (use enough water with dry ingredients to mix into a medium thick, smooth sauce)
Directions:
1. Brown meat in a dutch oven.
2. Add remaining ingredients for chili.
3. Simmer for 30 minutes.
4. Combine ingredients for thickening agent and add to chili.
5. Cook until thickened.
