Award-winning Texas Chili #bbq #bbqshorts #shorts #barbecuenation #chili #texas #texasbbq #foodie
Here in Texas, we don't put beans in our chili. We like it full of flavor and spice, and I add a little beer for an extra flavor kick. The very first time I made this chili I won 1st place at a cook-off, so I haven't changed the recipe since! #bbq #bbqshorts #shorts #barbecuenation #chili #texas #texasbbq #foodie
HOMEMADE CHILI RECIPE for Making a Mean Grown-Up Chili
Everyone has a secret for their homemade chili recipe. Here's mine. The ingredients are familiar, but it comes down to dialing up a few key components to get the depth and perfect balance of flavors we're looking for. Yes, I'm confident enough to say perfect. The result is a deeply flavored, complex, beefy chili that is worth the extra time.

A Midwestern Chili Made With Honey
Grandpa Walker is from South Bend, Indianna. He introduced this midwestern recipe to us. It's a favorite of our family when the cold weather hits. Of course the honeyqueen has to put her twist to it. Brown 1 lb. hamburger with 1 yellow onion diced, 2 tsp. garlic powder and 1 tsp. season salt. Heat 2 cans dark red kidney beans drained, 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can stewed tomatoes squished, 1/4 c. Cox's Honey, 1/2 c. apple cider vinegar, a couple shakes tobasco sauce, 2 TBSP. Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 c. ketchup, 2 tsp-2 TBSP to taste chili powder, 1 dark chocolate bar. Serve over 2-4 c. elbow macaroni cooked al dente. Optional: top with sour cream, shredded cheese, on the side my breadsticks, cornbread or saltine crackers. Daughter of a successful beekeeper, Virginia grew up working the bees, packaging honey and helping her dad make deliveries in Southeast Idaho and parts of Utah. In 1978, she reigned as Idaho’s first Honey Queen. She has spent her life educating others about the uses of honey, beeswax and byproducts. She enjoys developing and experimented with honey-infused recipes. A relatively new hobby includes using social media and her YouTube channel to teach others how to store honey, cook with it, use it in health and beauty products, and many other domestic uses. After moving to the Las Vegas Valley in 2001, she continued as a distributor for her family’s Idaho farm-fresh creamed and liquid honey. Check it out at her website: coxshoneyqueen.com
