Smoky White Chicken Chili

  Smoky White Chicken Chili because Ken has been making chili for almost 40 years, but this is the first time with chicken. Patti found a great deal on boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it’s definitely chili weather. So, we came up with our own version of white chicken chili.

South of the Border Burnt Ends and Tips

Our South of the Border Burnt Ends and Tips were a bit zippy. I nailed it! These were like a ZIPPY meat candy. Note: Ken’s idea of zippy is a true tongue scorcher.

Uncle Bubba’s Texas Terror Chili

I love chili with big chunks of tender smoky beef and lots of chili flavor.
