well hello folks it's mike here i just
want to welcome you back to mr cast iron
where
everything is better in cast iron and
today i've got a special for you i'm
going to be making another
chili for cast iron wednesday but it's
not your normal chili like you would
think of ground beef or venison or
something like that
but it's going to be a chili that's
going to be made out of
chopped barbecue pork i'll tell you a
little story i come home from work the
other day
and teresa's been sick a little bit and
she started to feel a little better and
she said boy i sure could use
or i sure could eat a uh barbecue
sandwich and i thought well okay we'll
just go to our little favorite barbecue
joint
and get us a sandwich and everything
well on the drive over there i thought
hey you know what
i'm just gonna go ahead and buy me a
couple pounds of chopped pork barbecue
because it's so good man we just love
this little restaurant
a few miles away so i went ahead and i
got a couple pounds of chopped pork
i thought i'm going to make some chili
for cast iron wednesday so that's what
we're going to do
and i'm going to show you just kind of a
little bit of some of the star
characters here of course naturally we
got chili powder
got cumin we got some minced garlic
we're going to put a little beef broth
in it
i got some good sea salt here of course
naturally the chopped pork
and i've got some ranch style beans here
got some tomato sauce
got some light red kidney beans here and
i've got some chili beans here
and of course naturally you know i love
onions so we're going to have
one medium actually it's almost a large
onion
we're going to start sauteing those down
with the garlic and the pork and
everything
and of course naturally when we get done
i'm going to put
some cheese in it but what makes this
pot of chili different
is it's actually going to be a
simple frito chili
pie now if you've not ever had a frito
pie
or a chili pie hold on we're going to
show you what this is all about so
let me go ahead and get all this stuff
on the stove we're going to start
cooking it down and we'll be back here
in just a little bit
okay so here we are back and in the
process of time this chili has come
together we put everything in we got it
all cooked down and stirred up and
everything so we're going to make our
dish
i've got some sour cream here and some
sliced jalapenos also that can be put
into this
now you can take the chili and just put
it in a bowl like this on top of some
fritos
and that's what we'll do here and of
course naturally i've got some
cheddar cheese i'm going to put on there
and
let me get me a couple of these
jalapenos here
just place those on there a little bit
like that
and i'm gonna get me a dollop of this uh
sour cream here okay
now that is a frito pie but that's not
the original frito pie the original
frito pie
actually comes in a bag like this
and so what you want to do now this has
been called frito pie it's been called
chili pies been called uh walking tacos
and different things like that but we're
going to put about three ladles of
chili in here and we're gonna go ahead
and add
just a few jalapenos on top of mine
like that right there i'm gonna put a
dollop of
sour cream in here just like that and of
course naturally
we're going to have to have a little
shredded cheese
and so i'm just going to use this spoon
right here if y'all don't mind but right
there
is the original frito pie
leave me a comment down there in the
description box or in the comment
section if you've ever had a frito pie
before
we used to eat these a lot back in the
70s and 80s
and so when theresa and i went to the
barbecue joint the other day that's the
first thing i thought of was a frito pie
because you can't hardly find them
anymore so the best way to do that
is make it at home and so man i tell you
what you got these fritos with that
chili in there
um wow
you can't beat that there it is look at
that
you got your original frito corn chips
you got you some good chili
of course this right here is made with
chopped barbecue
pork and then you just place it on top
of your fritos
you can add your jalapenos if you like
some sour cream
some shredded cheese and man you've got
a simple
frito pie so that's what we wanted to
share with you today hope you've enjoyed
this you guys take care and have a great
day
