Bulgar in chili

I made a great chili today –

  • 1 lb grassfed ground beef
  • 1 lb local ground pork
  • 4 cups beans (soaked overnight in water)
  • 4 small cans tomato sauce (8 ounce cans)
  • 1 cup uncooked bulgar
  • Chopped garlic, onions
  • Cumin, chili powder, cayenne, plus 1 tablespoon of Bob’s Hotter Than Hades Habanero Sauce

I browned the pork and ground beef with the garlic and onions, added the spices and poured it into a large crockpot.  Then I added the bulgar, beans, tomato sauce, and filled it the rest of the way with water.  I turned it on high for the first hour, then down to low. . . 8 hours later, hotter than hades chili with bulgar.

Bulgar is turning out to be a great meat extender.  I could probably have made this with one pound (or less) of meat and doubled the uncooked bulgar.

Preview of Tomorrow’s Attraction — cream of bulgar with Bob’s Hotter than Hades Habanero Sauce.  I can’t believe I haven’t tried this yet!  Plus hmmm. . . a dash of honey and of course yogurt. That’s a breakfast that will break a sweat and stick to your ribs.
