Re: Chili Con Carnage

I find that Sour Cream is great to serve with Chili Con Carne, especially when served with rice. I also use rump cut up into fine pieces and slow cook it for approx 4hrs til it breaks down. Better than mince IMHO :D

Looks like we have a new leader in the Scoville Race,"Dorset Naga gave a reading of nearly 900,000SHU. A fresh sample was sent to a lab in New York used by the American Spice Trade Association and recorded a mouth-numbing 923,000SHUs. " Man that would make my gums bleed :shock:

Well, I picked up my new keg fridge yesterday. It's a Fisher and Paykel P120, $182.50 off eBay. Had to unscrew the little temperature control box thing which is normally up the top, so that the corny would fit. The big keg behind is my 12L stainless steel. The freezer even perfectly fits my glasses ...

I got two of the 23L ones because Corny's are an inch too tall for my fridge.
