Over the top Chili on the Kamado Joe. This smoked Chili is literally "over the top"

If you've never had over the top Chili, you might never go back to regular Chili ever again. We smoked our beef over the top of the Chili just below in our dutch oven and it instantly became a family favourite.

I'm going to make this for an Xmas brunch. I think I would do all the sautéing on my stove top while the KJ is getting to the correct temperature. I love the idea of doing it all on the KJ but it just seems easier to do that part inside. I love the idea of using baked beans for the sweetness. I didn't notice when the spice went in. Does it go in at any point? Is it mixed with the meat? I'm curious about the consistency of the beans. Many chili recipes don't have you add the beans until the final phase of cooking. Especially with canned beans. But if they still have some bite with this method, I'm game to try. Otherwise, I may add the black beans when I add the meat. And I guess while I'm here, I will just add that your videos are really incredible! I've learned so much ferom them and appreciate all the experimenting that you do for us. It's such a terrific resourse. All the best!

Do you think this could be done on the Joe Jr. by setting a 5 quart Lodge dutch oven on the grate directly on the ceramic ring and using a second grate (such as the one that comes with the Smokeware grate stacker) on top for the meat? Or do you think the dutch oven being so close to the coals and the reduced air flow would make that not feasible?

My wife doesn’t like chili - she asked for seconds tonight. Great recipe! Although I did have to add a few things (chili has to have mushrooms!). May I humbly suggest that it makes more sense to start the base on the stove in the kitchen, then take the simmering base and and the “roast” out to the Joe. Starting the base on the Joe doesn’t take advantage of the Joe (or the smoke) and taking all the ingredients outdoors and taking the empty dishes back inside is a headache.

@@SmokingDadBBQ It's expected that a guy with a grilling channel will use a grill. I'm hoping others will read my comment and give that a try. Also I think you should add a tablespoon of salt to the base recipe.

have you done a clean burn in a while? sometimes residual fat drippings build up and cause problems and the only way to fix it is a nice 30-45min session at 500-600f

I ended up letting my KJ get to a higher temperature first - the smoke disappeared and then let it cool back down to ~120C. That said, for all I know I just chewed up all my smoking wood and just left charcoal burning... Hopefully it'll turn out! :)

@@SmokingDadBBQ good to know but this is a relatively new KJ: just my third cook on the sucker, so I don't think that's it? (First was your shawarma, second a cold smoke of cheese with a pellet tube). Turned out great once I overshot and cooled down, but I definitely didn't have as much smoke flavour... Maybe something for me to learn there. Thanks though for your great videos! Chili turned out great!
