    Title: Slow Cooker White Chicken Chilli
    Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Beans, Chilies, Vegetables
    Yield: 7 Servings

    3 tb Unsalted butter
    1 lg Onion; fine chopped
    Salt
    10 cl Garlic; fine chopped
    +=OR=+
    1 tb (heaping) garlic granules
    1 Jalapeno; seeded, minced
    12 oz (3 cans) chopped green
    - chilies
    2 ts Ground cumin; more to taste
    2 ts Onion powder
    1 ts Dried oregano
    1/2 ts Ground cayenne;more to taste
    2 lb Boned, skinned chicken
    - thighs
    3 c Chicken stock
    28 oz (2 cans) great Northern
    - beans; drained, rinsed
    1 1/2 c Frozen corn
    1 c Fine chopped fresh cilantro;
    - optional
    1 Lime; juiced
    Pickled jalapeno slices,
    - sliced scallion, cubed
    - avocado and sour cream,
    - for serving

    In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
    Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring
    occasionally, until the onion is softened & translucent,
    about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeno and cook
    until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chopped green
    chilies, cumin, onion powder, oregano and cayenne and
    stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.

    Transfer the mixture into a 5 to 8 quart slow cooker.
    Generously season the chicken thighs with salt and add
    them to the pot. Stir in 3 cups chicken stock and the
    beans. Cover and cook on low until chicken is tender,
    4 to 6 hours.

    Shred the chicken using two forks. (You can do this
    directly in the pot, or remove the chicken to a bowl,
    shred it, then return it to the pot.) Stir in the frozen
    corn, cover and cook until warmed through, about 10
    minutes. Stir in the cilantro, if using, and lime juice.
    Season to taste with salt.

    Serve in bowls and pass the toppings at the table.

    UDD NOTE: I used garlic granules instead of chopped
    garlic cloves. I may increase the amount next go.

    Title: Chilli Supper: The Recipe
    Categories: Stews, Chilies, Beef, Poultry
    Yield: 32 Servings

    5 lb Chilli grind beef chuck
    8 oz Suet
    3 Ribs celery; w/leaves
    1 ts Jalapeno powder; + more to
    - taste
    +=OR=+
    1 Fresh jalapeno; stemmed
    46 oz Can Red Gold tomato juice
    46 oz Can chicken broth
    1 tb Minor's or GFS beef base
    +=IN=+
    16 oz Boiling water
    4 oz Baron's # 5640 chilli spice
    - mix (chilli powder)
    1 1/2 oz Ground cumin
    1 1/2 tb Brown sugar
    1 1/2 tb Onion granules
    1 tb Garlic granules
    3/4 tb Salt
    1/2 ts Oregano; crumbled
    1/2 ts White pepper
    1/2 ts Worcestershire powder
    1 1/2 ts Vinegar
    1/2 ts Prune juice; opt
    Cayenne pepper; opt
    Finely diced bell pepper;
    - opt

    MMMMM---------------------------KICKER--------------------------------
    2 1/2 tb Mexene chilli mix *
    1/2 tb Ground cumin
    1/2 tb Garlic granules
    1/2 ts Salt; more to taste
    96 oz Brooks Chilli Hot beans **

    * Or Ray's Chilli Mix

    ** Not at an ICS cook-off unless entering the new "Home-
    style" category. At your home - or restaurant: beans are
    fine if you like them. (but NOT kidney beans)

    This should produce 2+ gallons of chilli sauce.

    Prepare the basic recipe - down to the kicker section.

    Render the suet and cook the chuck in it until all the
    pink disappears.

    While the meat is cooking place the celery, jalapeno,
    and tomato juice in a blender and puree.

    Make sure all lumps of beef have been broken up. Place
    the meat and the celery/chile/tomato juice in an 8 quart
    heavy-bottom pot.

    Add balance of ingredients to the pot, stirring to mix.
    Add in the chicken broth and beef base/water simmering
    on a low flame. Stir often enough to keep the chilli
    from scorching or sticking.

    Taste often and adjust seasonings (especially salt and
    garlic) as you go - to your taste.

    When sauce is cooked, in your estimation, remove from
    heat, and refrigerate overnight.

    The next day, re-heat the chilli sauce on a low flame
    until heated through and at a nice low simmer. Add the
    "kicker" ingredients and cook for at least 15 minutes
    to allow flavours to marry and blend. Add the beans and
    stir to combine.

    With the addition of the beans, there should be 2 1/2
    gallons of chilli.

    This should serve: 32 Ten-ounce bowls

    Recipe adapted from Les Eastep's chilli supper recipe.
    I have used this recipe in ICS chilli cook-offs and
    have placed higher (ironically) than its originator
    in those contests more than once.
