Pedernales River Chili recipe

 

This is the chili that was always cooked at the LBJ Ranch in Texas. It was a favorite of Lyndon B. Johnson. He ate this with saltine crackers and a glass of ice cold milk.

 

4 pounds coarsely-ground beef

1 large onion, chopped

2

cloves

 garlic, finely chopped

1 teaspoon Mexican oregano

1 teaspoon ground cumin seeds

6 teaspoons red chili powder

2 (16 ounce) cans tomatoes

Salt,

to taste

2 cups hot water

 

Put the meat, onion and garlic in a large pot and sear until light brown. Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer, covered,

for 1 hour. Let cool, then refrigerate. Skim the congealed fat from the top. Reheat the chili to serve.

 

Serves 12.  Enjoy.
