Chili: Recipes For A Bodacious Bowl Of Red

by A. D. Livingston

Overview

Written with A. D. Livingston's signature wit and wisdom, Chili provides a wealth of recipes, expertise, and outspoken opinion on making the best, most bodacious bowl of red. A chili-head's delight, this book wrestles with the chili arguments that rage in cookoffs and home kitchens country-wide—with beans or without, tomatoes yes or no, ground meat or cubed, and more. Recipes include chili made with beef, pork, venison, fowl, elk, bison, and "what-ya-got?"; also jerky chili for camp or trail; chili dogs; regional renditions, and more. Whether you're in the mood for Crock-Pot Chili Con Carne, Easy Deer Camp Chili, Chili Meatloaf, or A.D.'s Jerky Chili, you're in for a treat.
