I'm guessing you probably don't want to google this. |

My chili is definitely on the sweet and spicy spectrum of chili. Honey, brown sugar, hot peppers and a metric shit tonne of spices.

DERP I forgot to say I used a pinch of cayenne and a pinch of red pepper flakes in that crockpot chili.

I don't recall having recently consumed corn.

What does a photo of Packers fans from last night have to do with this thread?

If a cheese knife is the coolest thing ever, consider me Miles Davis!

It has many uses. It digs great holes.

I'm pretty sure Animal Collective was at least a little bit cooler than sliced cheese...

Scor bars are the best candy on earth. That is a dirty lie. One time I wanted a Twix or something from a vending machine and pressed the wrong button and got a Skor (that's what you meant, right?) and it totally ruined my day. |

Haha yes, it's called Skor. I was so wrapped up in that chocolatey toffee goodness that I forgot how to spell it. Twix sucks.

I can't eat that thing. I want to chew it like normal chocolate, but then it gets all stuck in my teeth.
Probably doesn't help that I don't like toffee to begin with.

It's still good because it's all sugar, but there are much more satisfying sugar delivery methods than toffee.

My mom used to make birthday cake with whipped cream covered in skor bits instead of icing. SO FUCKING GOOD!

I made enchiladas the other day and decided to try my hand at homemade enchilada sauce. It was really easy and turned out fabulously, if I do say so myself. I had leftover Italian beef so I heated that up with a can of black beans, a can of diced green chiles, and some cumin, pepper, paprika, and a tiny bit of chili powder. The beef already had onions. I put some of that in a flour tortilla and topped with a mix of grated cheddar and pepper jack. Poured some sauce on the bottom of the pan, put in the enchiladas, covered with the rest of sauce, and then topped with a bit more cheese. SO GOOD. Even better the next day as leftovers. I am sure you could make an even better sauce using high quality chili powder or making your own out of chilies. Also using fresh onion and garlic. But I had whatever normal chili powder I use ($4-5 at the store) and I did not feel like blending anything so I used garlic powder and dried onion. Made a roux with 2-3 Tbs. oil and 1-2 Tbs. flour. Whisked that around for about a minute and added 3-4 Tbs. chili powder. Whisked that around for another minute, added a heaping tsp. garlic powder, a big pinch of dried minced onion, and a few shakes of TJ's 21 Seasoning Salute (my crack). Oh, and a few shakes of oregano. Added an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce and 2 cups of chicken broth (used water and chicken base). Add 1/2 tsp. of sugar, bring to a boil, reduce to a low simmer for 20 minutes or so. I tasted at around 15 or 20 minutes and added a tiny bit more of each spice and a tiny bit of cayenne and simmered for another 10-15 minutes to let those flavors blend in. (Low quality phone pics with no natural light....these looked really good!)   |

Those look and sound delish. I've never done a roux with oil instead of butter. Does it work and taste as good for thickening?
Megatron made a lemon meringue pie with a gluten free coconut crust the other day. No pics because it didn't last long enough. J-Dawg she is requesting your key lime pie recipe so she can prepare herself for when we come visit.
