Hey Helen,

Wow you really are a surfer. I surf a lot too, but it never occurred to me
to look up this recipe online since it was printed in a cookbook. I prolly
wouldn't have found it, because in the cookbook, it's called Tomatillo
Chili. The recipe I was looking for is actually at this site:

http://www.easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~gcaselton/chile/recipes/chili-t/t062.txt

Thanks to everyone who went hunting and pecking around to find this recipe
for me. :) If you get a chance to try it, this is REALLLY good stuff. The
original recipe above calls for beef, but I have used both pork and chicken
(never beef, actually......) and it's excellent. I use Dona Maria nopalitos
(in a jar in the Hispanic section of the grocery store) and
jalapenos/chipotles instead of cayenne.

Lisa, when I tried this I got a message: "The specified server could
not be found". I would love the recipe. Is there any possibility
there's a typo in the URL?

Hi Lisa,

I don't know whether this recipe is the one you want, but it does have
the "Marlboro" name... The "san am" may be the "saanam" pepper. The
"Texas red" may be the same pepper.
...
Quoted:
"Chili Steak from 'Famous Chile Recipes from Marlboro Country'
http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~gcaselton/chile/recipes/chili-c/c090.txt

Yield: 6 servings

3 lb Rump or round steak, 1 inch
1 ts Salt
1/2 ts Pepper
2 ea Cl Garlic, crushed
3 tb Shortening
1/2 c Green pepper, chopped
1/2 c Onion, chopped
1 1/2 c Texas red or original san an
1/2 c Strong black coffee

Approx. CookTime: 1 hr

Cut steak into six servings. Mix salt, pepper, and crushed
garlic; season both sides of steak with mixture. Let stand
in a dish (glass or pottery) for about 1 hour. Pat steaks
dry and fry in the shortening until browned, turning once.
Remove from pan. Cook green pepper and onion in pan until
soft; add chili and coffee. Return steaks to pan ; bring to
a boil. Reduce temperature, cover and cook 45 minutes. Serve
with rice. Makes 6 servings.

There's a lot of good things that chili goes with, or on, or
in. Like tortillas. Tamales. Sourdough bakin's. Cornbread.
Beer bread. Texas Toast. Eggs. Hash. Ground beef. Steak. And
you can fancy up chili with opnions, green peppers, tomatoes,
avocado or guacamole, and different kinds of cheese. You get
the idea. chili's not only one of the best eatin' ideas there
ever was, but one of the best for satisfying all kinds of tastes."

From the "U.K. Chile Head"
This is an absolutely huge Chile site. If you like Chile anything,
you'll likely find it here:

I had no idea there were hundreds of peppers...

The recipe at this link seems to be exactly the same:

I guess he went to the same site I did...

Commercial, but generous.
Note that the domain name is different, but don't let that put you off,
it's all connected.
You'd better have good RAM and modem speed though.


Both these recipes seem to have just regular green peppers. Other Chile
verde recipes I saw had jalapenos for some extra heat.

PS: Phillip Morris may still have that program going, from what I could
tell at their site (hush hush top secret stuff!)

I look everything up on the Internet... gave away my kids' old school
encyclopedias.

The site is off line today - -
I wonder if he forgot to renew his domain name??? Actually, I don't think it's
his domain anyway...

5 minutes later... it's finally up again - it was down for hours, since I first
received your e-mail

1 minute later... it's down again! What gives?

Oh, I know - I got the url without the "www" from the search engine, and that
works.

Drop the "www" - some site only work without it.

Others have the domain with and without the "www" - I don't know how they
register them without it.
