    This weekend’s slow cooker chili.

    1/2 lb smoked ground beef
    1 C dry Santa Maria Pinquitos
    1/4 C dry hominy
    Serrano peppers
    Smashed garlic gloves
    1/4 C cubed ham steak
    Chili powder
    Cumin
    Onion powder
    Garlic powder
    Coriander Powder
    Paprika
    Bacon grease
    1 large chicken bouillon cube
    1/2 can tomato paste
    7 C water
    Salt

    1. Soaked hominy and beans overnight
    2. Smoked half a pound of seasoned ground beef at 225 for 45 minutes
    3. Sauteed garlic, cubed ham and peppers in bacon grease until brown, added to slow cooker
    4. Place beans, hominy, water, and seasoning (minus salt, I seasoned aggressively) in slow cooker set on high
    4. Cook for 3 hours, add tomato paste, ground beef and salt,
    5. Cook for another hour, serve with biscuits or cornbread.

    Don’t normally add hominy to my chili but got some in my rancho gordo box. Really nice addition.

    Wow this is beautiful. Absolutely took this recipe and will be making it. What was the spice level? Is Santa Maria pin Quito’s a dry pepper?

    How did the beans survive? I usually add half at the beginning, and the second half about an hour from done, to hold their texture.
