Gator's Chili

The best chili to use is fresh green chili, preferably from Hatch, New Mexico. It's a little more work but it comes out great. Roast your fresh green chili in the oven or on your barbecue outside. That creates a chili atmosphere, too. You just want to heat them enough to make the skin turn loose from the meat of the chili. Then peel the skin from the chili. When this is done, use a good cutting board and a knife that cuts and feels good. Good cutlery is important to your chili. Dice 1/2 lb of peeled green chili and add.
