My review
Arizona Roadhouse Chili
Karen Barris Calabro
"The best thick hearty chili recipe you'll ever need. In 25 years of restaurant cooking, this is my classic chili recipe; loved by thousands. Vary the amount of green chilies and hot sauce if you're an Easterner unused to fiery Western foods, but don't change anything else."

Ready In
- Place pinto beans in a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight.
- Cook and stir beef in a large stockpot over medium-high heat until crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease from pot.
- Drain pinto beans and add to stockpot; add onions, celery, carrots, garlic, red bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, Anaheim peppers, poblano peppers, diced tomatoes, guajillo chile powder, cumin, oregano, coriander, cinnamon, and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook mixture at a simmer for about 3 hours.
- Stir beef granules into the chili and continue simmering until beans are very tender and disintegrate easily, 1 to 3 hours more, adding water as needed to keep beans and vegetables immersed in liquid. Thicken the chili with masa harina if you prefer a thicker texture. Season with salt just before serving.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- If you're cooking this in a crock pot, keep heat on high and cook uncovered for 8 to 10 hours instead. Add beef base in the final hour if desired. It is not necessary, but I always use it.

I made this chili according to the directions. It is a little unusual for chili, in that it uses carrots and celery. The only problem that I have with the recipe is that it does not have any sa...
