Award winning recipe from Backwoods BBQ in Corona, Ca as per the newspaper clipping I saw. Their chili is spicy and addictive!
Ingredients:
2 lbs tri-tip roast
6 cups tomato sauce
3 cups canned pinto beans
3 cups canned black beans
1/2 large white onion, diced
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped fine
1/2 cup canned diced jalapeno
1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup masa corn flour
3/4 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon ground pepper
1/2 tablespoon granulated garlic
1/2 tablespoon seasoning salt
1/2 tablespoon garlic salt
1/2 tablespoon red pepper flakes
Directions:
1. Smoke or barbecue tri tips until medium to medium-rare. Chill tri tips until firm. Trim fat from meat and dice into 1/2-inch cubes. Put tomato sauce, pinto and black beans into pot. Add onion and cilantro. Add jalapeƱos and other seasonings. Mix thoroughly and add diced tri tip. Cover and simmer over low heat, stirring often, for about an hour. You also can pour chili into deep baking pan or disposable foil pans, cover with foil and heat slowly in 250- to 300-degree oven for 2 hours or until thickened. Makes 3 quarts. Cooking notes:.
2. All tablespoons should be heaping, not level.
3. The heating and thickening is simple and forgiving as long as you do not burn it.
4. Instead of cooking the chili on the stovetop or in the oven, you can also put the chili back on your barbecue and simmer it there.
