Add the chopped onion and garlic to a pot with the olive oil. Cook on low until they’re cooked and nice and sweet but with no color. Add white wine and cook for 3 minutes to cook off the alcohol, then add the tomatoes, bay leaves, and oregano. Cook for 45 minutes to an hour while you make the braciole. Pull out the oregano, remove the bay leaf, season your sauce with salt, and finish with your torn basil. To make the Braciole: Butterfly and pound out your sirloin to make one large piece, no thicker than 1/4” thick. In a separate bowl, combine all the ingredients for your filling. Add filling evenly to your sirloin. You want this to be about 1/4” thick of filling. Roll your sirloin to make a nice tight pinwheel. Use butchers twine to tie the braciole every 1 1/2”. Season the outside with salt. In a pan heat up some olive oil on medium high heat. Once your skillet is nice and hot, add your braciole. Sear on all sides. Once your braciole is seared, add to your pot of sugo and braise for 1 1/2 hrs on low. To make the Polenta: Heat up your stock, heavy cream and garlic until it comes to a boil. Slowly whisk your polenta into your liquid and turn your heat to low, whisking occasionally so it doesn’t burn on the bottom. After 25 min your polenta will be super creamy and sexy. Turn off your polenta and whisk in desired parmesan, butter and salt to taste. Plating and serving: Add a ladle of polenta to a shallow bowl. Take your braciole out of the sugo. Remove string and slice into 1 1/2 inch slices. Place on top of polenta. Ladle some sugo on top of braciole, garnish with a little parm and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve salad on the side.
- Big Ol’Pot Of Chili
When we make chili, we go big. It freezes beautifully, so one batch can last for months—or it’s perfect for feeding a crowd at parties or gatherings. For added depth of flavor, we love roasting the jalapeños and garlic. It’s an easy step that adds so much richness, though it does require a little extra time. A great tip for anyone sensitive to the acidity of tomatoes: stir in a pinch of baking soda at the end of cooking. This simple trick helps neutralize the acidity, mellowing the flavor while making it gentler on the stomach.Start your vegetables in a large Dutch oven or stock pot—trust us, you’ll need plenty of space for all of the ingredients. Chili is all about building layers of flavor, and having the right setup makes all the difference. Total Time: 2 Hours, 30 minutes Servings: 8–10 Ingredients 3 16-ounce packages Pre 85% lean ground beef 1 head of garlic, sliced horizontally to expose the cloves 3 to 6 jalapeños depending on how hot you like your chili 3 tablespoons high heat cooking oil, divided 2 teaspoons kosher salt 2 large onions, 1 peeled and diced and pulsed to a pulp in a food processor. 1 peeled and diced small. 2 green bell peppers, seeded and diced small 2 red bell peppers, seeded and diced small 1/3 cup chili powder 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt 1 tablespoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon oregano 2 tablespoons double concentrated tomato paste 1/4 cup brewed coffe (leftover is fine) 1 14.5-ounce can pinto beans 1 14.5-ounce can kidney beans 1 14.5-ounce can black beans 1 14.5-ounce can cannellini beans 2 14.5-ounce cans fire roasted diced tomatoes with green chilis 2 28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking soda Instructions Roasted Garlic Preheat oven to 375°. Drizzle cut garlic with a little olive oil or spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and wrap in foil. Bake in oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until soft and slightly browned. Garlic can be made 2 days ahead, wrap in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate. Roasted Jalapeños Heat a cast iron pan over medium heat and put the whole jalapeños in the dry skillet. Roast, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred on all sides, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and place in a paper bag until cool enough to handle. When cool remove the skins by rubbing with your fingers (don’t do under running water to preserve the flavor). Roughly chop then pulse in a mini food processor until slightly chunky. Peppers can be made 2 days ahead. Chili Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the cooking oil, onions, green and red peppers, and saute until soft, about 8 to 10 minutes. While the vegetables are cooking brown the ground beef. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Season the beef with the salt and cook, breaking up meat until cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and add the chili powder, brown sugar, garlic powder, garlic salt, paprika, crushed red pepper, cinnamon, and oregano. Stir to combine and cook for about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and coffee and stir to combine. Add the meat to the vegetables in the Dutch oven, stir to combine. Add the beans, including the liquid in the cans, and stir gently to avoid breaking the beans. Add the tomatoes with their juice, sprinkle the cocoa powder over the tomatoes and stir. Add about 1/3 of the roasted jalapenos and the cloves from the whole head of roasted garlic (squeeze the garlic head and remove and of the papery skin.) Stir again and cover pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer (not boil) for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, tasting about every 1/2 hour. After the first hour add more jalapeños according to your taste, and reserve any extra for serving. Add the baking soda and stir, the chili will foam up, and cook for about 10 minutes. Chili can be served right away or kept covered in the refrigerator for 2 days. Gently reheat over medium low heat. Serve with your favorite accompaniments. We like to freeze in 2 to 4 size portions and serve with taco shells, cheese or on loaded baked potatoes.

Fill a large pot with water, add salt and bring to a low boil, and add the trimmed cabbage leaves. Turn off the heat and simmer for 30 seconds. Transfer the leaves to the ice water with tongs or a slotted spoon and soak for about 2 minutes. Lay out a clean kitchen towel and lay the cabbage leaves flat to dry. Cover with paper towel and blot gently to remove as much moisture without tearing the leaves. Lay out the other ingredients next to a large cutting board or clean work surface. Working with one blanched leaf at a time, spread a heaping tablespoon of the steak along the wide end of the cabbage leaf, about 2 inches from the bottom. Drizzle about 2 teaspoons chili sauce over the meat then add the carrots, green onions, cucumber, and cilantro. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts and roll the leaves upward, tucking in the ends as you go. Continue in the same manner and place finished rolls on a platter, seam side down. Chill for about 1 hour before serving. Cut each roll in half for entree portions or into 4 pieces for appetizers. Serve with additional sweet chili sauce.
