Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

Smoked some beef ribs yesterday. 6 hours on the kamado joe.
Turned out amazing. -
NP @Soleamp and this was my first try at the pressure cooker variant–the original that I have based past successes on is here: https://www.seriouseats.com/real-texas-chili-con-carne
When I first dipped my toe into chili con carne I used this: http://www.recipecircus.com/recipes/Buny/MainDish-Chili/Roger_Foltz39s_Chili.html
These days I try to resist packaged ingredients and MSG (e.g. chili powders unless I make them myself, Sazon Goya--and no, I am not eliminating MSG because I think it's a health hazard, I just will use a little fish sauce instead for umami), so I no longer use those kinds of recipes, but that one did win an award in 2004.

Thank you for posting that. I made it last Sunday; it was delicious.

Amazing @JDelage ! Glad you enjoyed it. I am a big fan of Kenji Lopez-Alt. I do prefer the non-pressure-cooker version of the chili con carne–a great use for an enameled crockpot.
His
is also really great. I like to introduce 1:5 butter into the grind and to incorporate yellow mustard into the patties, and I use grilled onions, more yellow mustard, and dill pickles as my toppings. I do mine on a cast iron griddle, but only because I don't have a stainless griddle yet. I really cherish the Maillard reaction and this gets you all those crispy browned bits, while not turning the patties into hockey pucks. -
@mclaincausey - I'm a big fan of his too, and he actually recently moved just a couple blocks from us. I have used his sous-vide recommendations for a few years (even though he uses an Anova and I a Joule).
I'll have to check that burger recipe. It looks scrumptious.

Sometimes you just have to hold your nose and scarf it down…
But seriously, some talented stuff always on the thread.
I hope you share your experience with the smashed burger here @JDelage ! I don't have an immersion circulator yet, but the Joule looks good to me and IIRC has higher power.
