Terlingua Red Chili - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 tablespoons bacon fat
3 lbs ground beef, coarse grind
1 tablespoon black pepper
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups beef broth
2 pints dried chili salsa
1/4 cup smoked paprika
5 tablespoons hot chili powder
4 tablespoons granulated garlic powder
2 tablespoons cayenne powder
1 tablespoon cumin

Preparation

Dried Chili Salsa is Recipe #408273.
In a dutch oven over medium high heat melt bacon fat.
Brown beef with black pepper. We like to chop the beef so it is a fine mince, not chunky-that part is up to you.
Drain off most of the fat, leaving about 1/4 cup.
Add chicken broth.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium low and cook until liquid has reduced to 1 inch.
Add beef broth, salsa and remaining spices.
Cook to desired thickness.
Serve with warm corn tortillas and shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
