This easy-to-make prime rib chili uses deliciously tender chunks of prime rib roast leftovers and my homemade chili seasoning mix. Add some sautéed onion and garlic, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce, and three types of beans for a wonderful leftover dinner.
Heat a large stockpot with 2 tablespoon olive oil to medium-high heat. Saute the chopped 1 large white onion, 2-3 cloves garlic, and 2 whole jalapenos until tender and fragrant, or about 2-3 minutes.
Add the tomato products (15 oz diced tomatoes, 8 oz tomato paste, and 15 oz tomato sauce) and au jus or beef stock.
Add your 30 oz kidney beans and 15 oz black beans.
Add the chili seasoning mix and stir to combine all ingredients. Bring the chili to a boil, stir, then reduce the heat to low.
Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the 2 lbs leftover prime rib and continue to simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through.
Dutch Oven Prime Rib Chili
Saute and assemble your chili as directed above, then bring to a boil.
Transfer to your preheated oven at 325℉ (163℃) and allow the chili to cook for 30-35 minutes covered. Add the cut prime rib and return to the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
Crockpot Prime Rib Chili
Add the ingredients to your crockpot or slow cooker, minus the cut prime rib. Heat on low and cook for 6-8 hours, until the onion, garlic, and jalapeno are tender. *If you saute the onion, garlic, and jalapeno before adding, the cooking time can be reduced to 4-6 hours on low heat.
Remove the lid, add the cut prime rib and stir to combine. Cover and heat an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the prime rib portions are warmed through.
Instant Pot Prime Rib Chili
Set your Instant Pot to the SAUTE function. Add the olive oil, spreading the oil to cover the entire bottom surface of the pot, and allow the inner pot to heat. Add the onion, garlic, and jalapeno and saute until tender and fragrant, or about 2-3 minutes.
Use a ½ cup of beef broth to deglaze the inner pot, using a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape any browned bits from the pot.
Add the remaining ingredients, minus the cut prime rib. Stir to combine.
Cover and seal the lid, turning the venting knob to sealed while cooking. Cook for 10 minutes at HIGH PRESSURE, and allow the chili to do a natural pressure release.
Remove the lid carefully, add the cut prime rib, and return your Instant Pot to the SAUTE setting for 3-5 minutes or until the beef is warmed through.
