I love camping and everything about it including making good grub!!
I been working on making things Gourmet (CHEAP) at the camp site besides 21 different ways to use Ramen noodles, Beef Stew MRE's and Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli.
Case in point I love everything Green Chili I love to make Green Chili pork stew as well, a trip to the local produce market reveled dehydrated New Mexico Green Chili powder in a bag!! ::012::
Well I had to try this and first thing was going to be for camping, note it's not like fresh roasted GC but it has the GC flavor and kick.
Now for the cheap Grub..
First Wash your hands!! ::024::
Local Dollar Tree has now Center cut Pork chops and not bad cuts I invested $7.00 in the bag of Chili only needed four Tbs+ for this test the $7.00 bag has enough for one gallon or more of sauce (this will last me till i die for camping). I put the mix together at home in a small zip lock bag and have used it three times double batches and still have more for another batch (see photo).
What you need:
one small potato, one small green pepper and one small yellow onion the rest was salt black pepper, Cumin powder and a little granulated garlic (not Powder) a pinch of Italian spice.
Total cost for two people $4.00 including the two pork chops, less if you have the spices at home.
Dice up like 1/4 cup of onion 1/4 cup green pepper 1 cup potato and the two pork chops ( I Blanch the diced potato until tender and add it later while the grub is simmering).
Saute the onions, peppers, pinch of the Italian season, a little black pepper and small pork cubes till tender then add water potatoes bring to a boil add 4tbs of Green Chili powder a little cumin a pinch of granulated garlic let it simmer till it starts to reduce add salt to taste near the end..
Note: if the sauce is still a little thin I crushed a half of a raw white corn Tortilla into the mix as it will thicken the sauce.
The results with eggs for breakfast Kicked Ass with a cup of Coffee!!
You need to taste your own way of making this the measurements are a simple guideline not exact as i just winged it but I was a cook and chef for 20+ years in my past life..
Took around 45 minutes total time.. You can add whatever meat or no meat if you want, i like pork it's fairly cheap and cleaner to work with than raw chicken..
If you know what this is and can't get the Green Chili Powder in your area I will Hook you up..
