I got her a food grinder attachment for the Kitchenaid mixer for a small Christmas gift. (I got her other stuff, too -- I'm not stupid) So tonight we went to the store and picked up some country style boneless pork ribs and a small trimmed brisket. These were cubed and ground coarsely in the new gadget. I helped with that part.
She made a nice batch of chili with the results. We had it with corn tortillas and diced onion. Good stuff for a cold night.
