Good lord, VolNExile, that brought back memories. When I was in college in Mississippi, I stayed at friends houses on weekends (family in Jamaica), my best friend at time lived in the boonies. Every weekend at her house was an adventure in new cuisine, whether it be squirrel, rabbit, raccoon or whatever they brought in. Got to see it prepared outside and eat inside. Good times there.I suppose this might be an alternative...

Wow, a sudden thought: you’d be a great person to ask!Good lord, VolNExile, that brought back memories.

Ground chicken instead of ground beef ftw. No cheat mixes here though. 3 cans tomatoes, diced chiles, one diced red onion, two lbs ground chicken, 1 bell pepper, 1 poblano, 2 jalapeños, chicken broth, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, cayenne, red pepper flake, smoked paprika, black pepper and a touch of oregano. Add whatever beans you like, I don’t use any though.Chicken doesn’t go in chili.

Why is it so hard to find fresh lima beans for sale? Are they picky about growing conditions or something? I’m in western NC, I’m drawing a blank if you’ve said where you live.
(This was maybe my first question of Behr, back before he decided to ignore the entire Zone. View attachment 185650. That’s why he calls me Lima, when he’s not in a snit.)
So much pepper in there it probably wouldn’t matter what meat you used. Except squirrel, people who make stew with squirrel and acorns are mental.Ground chicken instead of ground beef ftw.

Yea, once it simmers you never can tell. Except for me, the chicken version will never get too thick and sticky. Even after 2-3 days in the fridge. And FYI, 2-3 days is about all you should ask for. The pepper flakes and jalapeños take over after that!So much pepper in there it probably wouldn’t matter what meat you used.
