Step 1

1. ⁠Seed and stem the dried chilies (anchos, pasilla, costena, guajillo, and NM). Heat them in enough water (or chicken stock) to cover the chilies and let them soak for 15 minutes.

Step 2

2. ⁠Meanwhile, heat up large pot to medium high heat, with butter and onion (let onions caramelize for a bit). Add jalapenos and Serrano’s (they should sizzle when you add them) and cook for about 5 minutes, until the onions start to turn translucent. Add the garlic about halfway through this step.

Step 3

3. ⁠Add the meat and cook until fully browned.

Step 4

4. ⁠At this point the chilies should be soft. Remove them from the water (discard water, it will be bitter), and place them in a blender along with the chipotles in adobo sauce and sun dried tomatoes (tomatoes added toward the end).

Step 5

5. ⁠Maybe add some beer to help move everything around.

Step 6

6. ⁠Puree until nice and smooth and then add to chili pot along with crushed tomatoes, spices and everything else. Stir well. Cook at a low simmer for 2-4 hours.
