Mrs. Lori's Homemade Pantry Chili Seasoning Mix

[Music] [Music] it's getting to be a little bit nippy outside so what that usually means is it's time for making a big old pot of chili and i've had several requests for my homemade chili seasoning so what we're going to do is we're going to make enough for several pots and there are several ingredients but if you ever buy a packet of a chili seasoning at store and you look at the ingredients there's a lot of ingredients in there a lot of times it'll just say spices and then a lot of ingredients that you really don't even know what they are but this is a really good chili seasoning and we're going to start off i think we're going to start off with our beef base and i buy this at the mennonite store and it's just a powdered beef base that you can make beef broth out of it takes about a tablespoon to two cups of boiling water to make you a some good beef broth but we're just going to take let's see two tablespoons of our beef base [Music] then we're going to take about a teaspoon of onion powder [Music] and i'm going to take a teaspoon of this is roasted garlic powder you can just use regular garlic powder if that's what you got [Music] we need about two-thirds cup of a good chili powder that's what i've got here so we're just going to put that in there and i've just whoops i just got a jar here that was uh i think there was fig preserves in it that's what i'm using so we got our chili powder in there we need a fourth of a cup of cumin [Music] we need a tablespoon of oregano and you can use powdered oregano [Music] what i've got here come out of my garden [Music] and it's what i hung up and dried so i'm gonna put a good tablespoon full and my jar is getting full [Music] my oregano now this is where you can cut back on your salt i'm gonna i'm gonna put probably about two teaspoons of salt but if you need to cut back on your salt you can leave the salt totally out of this and you may have a substitute that you use for your salt and that's fine so two teaspoons and at this point you can put you about eighth of a teaspoon of cayenne pepper in there i'm not gonna put any in because we don't like anything too spicy but then you're just gonna mix this up [Music] and any time that you go to use your homemade seasonings make sure you always before you use them after they've sit there while you need to kindly shake them or mix them up i'm trying to get this where i can shake it up this is a wonderful mix here now i've got one more little ingredient that i'm gonna put in here and that is let's see i think i put i put about a tablespoon and i'm going to put about a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder now i know that sounds very odd but what this does is it gives your chili seasoning a depth it just gives it a real depth of flavor but you can leave that out that's optional so we're just going to stir this up good that's all that was in it but it is a delicious really good chili seasoning and i'm making a mess as usual and just shake it up good and like i said anytime you use it always shake it up [Music] and there we go this is lori's homemade chili seasoning and you'll use about two and a half about two two and a half tablespoons with one pound of meat a couple cans of beans your tomatoes whatever you put in there about two two and a half taste it as you go you may want a little bit less or you may even want a little bit more but this little jar lasts you for several pots so there we go i hope y'all like this recipe like i said i've had some requests for my chili seasoning it's a really good one i hope you're all having a good week um i've been making some plum pepper jelly today after work and i probably won't download that video for a couple days because i want it to set up i want mr brown and i to to try some of it before i upload the video so hopefully that'll come out well probably by the end of the week or so but anyways make y'all some chili seasoning i think you'll really like it and make your big old pot of chili so god bless everybody we love y'all we'll see you in a few days
