      Title: U.S. Army Chilli
 Categories: Beef, Rice, Chiles, Chili
      Yield: 2 Servings

      2 lb Beef; diced
      1 tb Bacon drippings; hot
      2 c  Water; boiling
      2 tb Rice
      2 lg Dried red chiles;
           - whole, but seeded
      1 tb Flour
    1/2 ts Salt
      2 lg Onions; chopped

  "Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders fed on this particular chilli
  recipe which had been officially issued by the U.S. War Department
  in 1896. Perhaps it was this chilli which sent him and his band of
  brave men storming up San Juan Hill with such vigor only a couple
  of years later."

  In a very large skillet, briefly fry (brown) the steak in the bacon
  drippings.

  Add 1 cup of hot water and the rice. Cover and allow to simmer over
  very low heat until the rice is tender.

  Put the chilies into a bowl and pour in the second cup of boiling
  water over them and allow to stand until cool. Then, hand-squeeze
  the chilies until the water is red. Add the flour to the chili
  water and blend which should make it thicken. Discard the chili
  hulls.

  Add the chili water to the beef in the skillet and also add the
  salt and onions.

  Allow to simmer for about 10 more minutes until onions are tender
  and serve.
