Hey TL! Happy Monday. :D
So as some of you may know, I was featured in the "Fan Creation of the Week" on the Diablo III blog for my various D3 related recipes (they even highlighted some of my StarCraft food as well!).
Well, when I doing the Q&A, I asked them if they had any special requests for recipes. The D3 team gave me a few requests, so here is one of them:
Diablo III Chili!
But, that's not all... They even cooked the chili! 
![[image loading]](http://kierpanda.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/blog_chili_table2.jpg)
(well, by they, I mean Wyatt Cheng... He cooked the chili the night before and brought it to the office the following day for a lunch time chili feast)
INGREDIENTS I will say that this chili isn't burn off your face spicy. It does have some spice, so if you're sensitive to spices, it will burn... But, if you have a high heat tolerance, the chili will probably just tickle you. 
So, if you want to turn up the heat, I suggest putting ghost chilies instead of habaneros (since this chili was cooked in a huge batch, I didn't want to make the entire thing uber spicy because I probably wouldn't have been able to eat it all... plus, I couldn't even find ghost chilies T__T)
- salt
- pepper
- 1 tablespoon of paprika
- 1 tablespoon of oregano
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1/2 tablespoon of chocolate powder
- 1 tablespoon of cayenne chili powder
- 1 teaspoon of oil
- 1/2 white onion, chopped
- green onions, chopped
- 3 habanero peppers, chopped and seeded
- 3 jalapeño peppers, chopped and seeded
- 4 anaheim peppers, chopped and seeded
- 4 cloves of garlic, mined
- 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef (90/10 lean ground beef)
- 1 lb of ground pork (85/15)
- 1 can of black beans, strained
- 1 can of kidney beans, strained
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- 1 can of whole tomatoes
- cheddar cheese (optional)
- sour cream (optional)
WARNING: DO NOT CHOP HABANERO PEPPERS WITH YOUR BARE HANDS!! Use gloves or chop in a food processor. The oils from the pepper (capsacin) will burn your hands!!
PROCEDURE Total prep time is about 30 minutes. Total cook time is about 1 hour. This will make 8 servings.
Calories per serving: ~475 calories (without cheese and sour cream) / ~554 calories (with cheese and sour cream)
- Set a large pot on high heat. Add in half of your oil. When the pot becomes hot, saute your onions and garlic. Remove the garlic and onions when the onions become translucent.
- Add in your remaining oil and add your ground beef and pork. Season with half of your salt, pepper, cumin, cayenne, and paprika.
- Allow ground beef and pork to brown in the pot.
- Reduce heat to low and add in your diced and whole tomatoes. Return your garlic and onions to the pot. Add in remaining salt, pepper, cumin, cayenne, paprika, oregano and chocolate powder.
- Add in your chopped anaheim, habanero, and jalapeño peppers.
- Add in your strained kidney and black beans.
- Allow the chili to simmer for about an hour, stirring occasionally to prevent the bottom from burning.
- Garnish with green onions, sour cream and cheddar cheese.
- Eat!

One of the Diablo III CMs, Vaeflare, documented the entire event and sent me a TON of pictures. Here are some of them:

There's a ton more photos on my blog post.
And as always, check out my Facebook and Twitter
I'm trying to update more regularly, but it's been rough. D: (writing a new post tonight, so hopefully it'll be live later!)
Thanks for reading TL! <3

is there any particular reason you chose to use tomatoes + juices instead of breaking up the whole tomatoes by hand and using some other liquids like broth or beer or soda for more flavor??
also choclate in chili rules nice choice. but this
is way better than powdered!! it's a lot stronger too
|
That cacao looks expensive :D

WARNING: DO NOT CHOP HABANERO PEPPERS WITH YOUR BARE HANDS!! Use gloves or chop in a food processor. The oils from the pepper (capsacin) will burn your hands!! I don't know which Habanero Peppers you use but I ground dozens of Habaneros in different foods with my bare hands and they are still 100% functional! ... The problem will be, that like 30min later you touch the corner of your eye with your finger ...

It's just a lot easier.
While adding beer or soda (personally, I don't like soda) adds flavor, it also adds some extra unnecessary calories.
When I bake, I actually use that exact chocolate. However, I didn't have that bar on hand, so I just went with the chocolate powder I had:

I'm pretty lenient because a lot of "good for you food" can be debatable depending on what nutrition philosophy you follow. Additionally, there's always new publications about food science and nutrition, so that can change which foods are considered good for you.
Basically, I want to eat wholesome food...The less process, the better. But, that doesn't mean I kick out all processed foods (cheese and sour cream are pretty damn tasty...).
Ultimately, there are some things that are straight up horrible for you:

Don't eat too many of those things

I get what he's saying, but I've always understood food porn as something pretty to look at. With that being said, "food porn" may have a different connotation from person to person.

Ahh that sucks  I have a vegetarian recipe coming up, so hopefully you'll be able to enjoy that. :D

this looks really fuckin good. im gonna make this maybe thurs or fri night, but i think i'll pass on the habaneros too spicy for me
|
Is it normal to put chocolate powder in chili? 1/2 tablespoon seems like a lot. I'll definitely try this recipe out though. I've been feeling a bit constipated lately.
|
Good call mixing beef and pork. They complement each other well in all kinds of recipes! Ever try making chili with a big cut like a chuck roast or pork shoulder? If you braise it long enough it just falls off the bone, plus all your spicy flavors get plenty of time to blend.
|
You can chop habaneros without gloves. Doesnt matter if they are green, red or yellow. It will not burn you. You should not rub your eye though. Or other sensitive parts for that matter.
Depending on which habanero you get, be careful. Their hotness range is quiet big so 3 could screw your Chili but I guess you can make up for it by mass. Also if capsaicin gives you troubles drink something with fat in it. Milk , yoghurt etc

Usually I would say you dont on that recipe because chilis are either shifting towards being hot or sweet. Jamie Oliver for example puts cinnamon in his and it tastes great but I prefer a hot one. Half a tablespoon should be fine

It's quite commonly used in the Middle/South American kitchen.

Do you think using 1 Tbsp of Thai Chili (Birds eye chili) would be too much as a replacement for the cayenne?

lots of chilis have chocolate and/or stuff like cinnamon or sugar in it. unsweetened chocolate gives it a kinda dark earthy taste. it's pretty subtle.
my go to chili has a couple hunks of that chocolate i posted on page 1, as well as a cinnamon stick, broth, soda and/or beer (this depends on what i have around). sodas and beers are acidic is how you tenderize your meat and the sugar helps balance it. (i usually use more than ground meat; sirloin, chuck, sausages, chorizo, etc, which takes a lot longer to cook than ground meat)
for beer, i try to use something dark and a little bitter; i use magic hat 9 or maybe yueng black and tan a lot. depending on what kinda beer, soda and peppers i used, i might add a little brown sugar. since i usually have beer and soda, i usually just rip apart canned tomatoes by hand to not make it overly acidic.
almost every single one ive seen with chocolate usually uses unsweetened baking chocolate though.
the cool thing about chili is that there are so many damn different ways to do it. there really isnt a right way, so long as you arent doing something dumb like vegetarian chili.

i dont know how it stacks up heatwise, but youll certainly have a different tasting chili.
if you are unsure, try adding to taste while you cook. add a tiny bit, let it cook for 20 min or so to absorb flavor, come back and taste, adjust as necessary. if you goof and make it too hot, add liquid to neutralize and rebalance the rest of your flavors. that's the nice thing about chili for newer cooks: it is quite hard to fuck up, and you can quickly fix errors usually

Good lord, why is your cheddar bright yellow? I hope it's just the saturation of your photo or the lighting of your room etc etc... cheddar's normally very pale (unless you're going for something like red leicester)

Yeah, to me food porn implies something that you would be embarrassed to be seen eating, something that you'd only eat when you know everyone else has left the house, that would be delicious but you'd feel the consequences of for the next week.
Your stuff looks (and most probably tastes) great, but is more like... fooderotica.

Because it's fake cheddar! I use soy cheddar and soy sour cream -- hence the cheddar is obnoxiously bright orange (even more so than the standard "sharp cheddar" available here in the states). I did saturate the image a bit though.

I burned my hands earlier that day, so capsaicin + injured hands = bad times. If you have sensitive skin, it'll probably burn still. Better safe than sorry!

Maybe I just hang round those subreddits too much.

I'm missing something sweet in this chili to offset the acidity (?) of the tomatoes.
Brown sugar or jam works nicely. And I generally drop about two tablespoons of ground coffee into my chilies (and two fresh paprikas cut into pieces).
And Habaneros burning hands? Don't think that's true. However, touching private parts or eyes afterwards is indeed a bad idea.

Thanks for the foodporn! I wasn't able to find (afford) all of the ingredients here (jalapenos are about as hot a pepper as you can find easily) but I was at least inspired to use the basics of your recipe and made my best chili to date :D
edit: Joining the earlier conversation...

Found a great substitute for chocolate powder - used unsweetened sesame butter. Delicious.
Also added bacon, mushrooms, and soy sauce while frying the beef and onions.

Making this again for my parents (vising from overseas - my dad loves chili).
