We could copy PH's rabbit recipe here and call it "Splitting Hares."

 Why didn't I think of that! Good answer, Tulsad.

Maybe this chili discussion is still a hot potato. I thought I posted something here a couple of hours ago but where is it? Whassup!
Oh well. Perhaps I screwed up and posted some favorite chili ingredient of mine on an NH thread instead. LOL.
Years ago I attended a business meeting in Dallas where one of the "fun" evening activities was a chili cook-off at some southwestern BBQ type affair. They divided us up into teams, tied kerchiefs around our necks, gave us copious amounts of beer and tequila and with a bevy of ingredients at hand - each team had to come up with the best concoction that was taste-tested and judged.
I don't know if it's do-able here. Maybe we could sign up for teams that would collaborate or it might be easier to submit our own separate recipes.
Either we could assign a few judges to try the recipes in their own kitchens and decide what was the best or anyone of us who was willing to make the recipes could be a judge. Or we could have some select judges cull the recipes down to a few and then the rest of us could try them out and vote. Or just the selected judges could simply decide the best. There are many options.
Maybe at the end we could even concoct a collaboration of all the best ingredients and come up with an official RU chili recipe.
I know VC likes to cook. And Phantom (still here?) used to post a lot of good recipes. I know there are many others who sound like they are good cooks but I can't think of them off the top of my head right now.
Or maybe any one of us could be a judge as long as we tried the recipe. It could take awhile as I can't imagine anyone wants to make chili that often - but even if it took several months - it might be fun. Maybe we could come up with the perfect chili in time for the first cold day of Fall 2007.
I don't know. Is is possible to pull off via the Internet? Is anyone up for a chili cook-off?

Maybe since we have members from all over the world, a favorite regional recipe face-off might be more interesting than limiting it to chili.

For Chili I tend to use what it is in the house, but usually it goes something like this:
1 large can of crushed tomatoes
1 large can of diced tomatoes
1 -2 cups of water depending on how thick you like it.
3 habaneros chopped
2 jalapenos chopped
1 can of light red kidney beans
1 can of dark red kidney beans
chili powder (to taste - I like lots)
dash of cumin
teaspoon of minced garlic
few dashes of habanero sauce
few dashes of red chili sauce
put the first group in a pot and bring to a boil
add the second group and turn down and simmer for about an hour
top with shredded cheddar cheese & serve with corn bread and salad.

Pat, I just noticed that you don't meat in the chili -- neat idea -- OK another ingredient we use.
Do you make rice with it?

I have an aversion to beans. However if I substitute meat for beans this would be a really good recipe. Thanks Pat!
