A long time if sealed in Tupperware.

I've kept some around for a couple of weeks and haven't had any issues. I suspect when it goes bad, it'd be in the form of visible mold.

I've stored chipotladobo in tupperware for like two months. It's super acidic, so it's relatively safe to store long term, I would think. I make huge batches and eat them for months wherever I think a spicy, tangy, smoky bite would be helpful.

I've heard conflicting reports, so I just freeze the open can in a ziplock and thaw at room temp whenever I need more. If repeated thawing/freezing worries you, I would blend the whole mess into a paste, freeze em in ice cube trays and store in a ziplock bag in the freezer.

Ha! The only place I've been able to find them here, they cost $5.99.

I really like the flavour of them but I'm a bit of a spice sissy. And I've only made batches of chili using about 500g of meat, which ends up being about 4 servings.

I think a whole can makes it too smoky.

Tastes too much like BBQ instead of chili.

For those who like extremely spicy, healthy food (and because I feel compelled to post this every time chipotle in adobo is mentioned):

Make this recipe. It's delicious, and do as I did and misread "1 canned chipotle in adobo sauce, coarsely chopped" as "1 can chipotle in adobo sauce, coarsely chopped". Use the whole loving thing, sear your taste buds off, and poo poo fire for a week. It was totally awesome and I'd definitely do it again.

It's technically a vegan recipe but I used chicken stock instead of vegetable stock because gently caress that. I also used waaaaaaaaay more garlic than the recipe calls for, and stick blended it into a homogeneous puree. Good poo poo.

Gotta train em. My wife used to hate spicy food but after two years of eating my cooking and making her own cooking spicier and spicier, she can actually eat a hot buffalo wing without crying. So a couple years from now she'll be able to handle adult spicy.

I've had good luck with rinsing the adobo sauce off of the chipotles before throwing them in. I agree the flavor of the sauce can be a bit overpowering.

The smoke should be in the peppers. The sauce is pretty much just paprika and vinegar.

Adobo should contain, at the very least, onions, garlic, tomato, and vinegar. I don't have a store bought can handy so I can't check, but I can't imagine something that anemic tasting like that.

Put on a big pot this morning for the first time in yonks. Pacing around, waiting for it to cook. This evening's going to be good.

Ended up going with a mix of ancho peppers and jalapeno peppers. Tomatoes - but no beans! I'm just a little bit of a heathen.

My can of chipotles has been covered and in the fridge for about a month. Smells fine, no mold, use or go get a new can (I have to go across town to get a new can)?

I'm mostly a GWS lurker but come back here every winter for assists on a delicious pot. Last year I had a bunch of friends over and it was unanimously the best pot of chili they've ever had. Tip o' the cap, thread.

It was basically season a 3lb pork butt with salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, cumin, brown sugar, sear it, throw in the can of chipotles (basically coat the top of the butt) and two chopped onions and like 4 seeded serranos. In the oven at 250-300 for 3-4 hours.

Rip apart and make tacos and nachos out of it.

Is this a thing that happens with chipotles in adobo because I used a whole can in my last chili and my piss was distinctly smoky-smelling for about as long as that batch lasted

Like I wasn't even trying to smell my pee it was just very aromatic

Well, the whole point of chipotles is that they're smoked in the drying process, so they pick up a lot of it.

Made some chili powder tonight out of what dried chilies I had, so-
1 Ancho
2 Pasilla Negro
1 Guajillo
2 Chipotle
~2 cayenne
~1 habanero

The cayenne and habenero were sliced then dried so estimated the quantity. Until today I've only made the Alton Brown recipe so I'm anxious to try it.

Also, I threw the cayenne and habenero in the skillet with everything else to toast, don't ever, ever, do that.

I made chilli today and I'm really struggling to get it really hot due to how pathetic the fresh peppers I can get are. I had 5 red chillies which is what they're called in the supermarket, about the heat of a jalapeno and 5 scotch bonnets for fresh peppers. Then had 5 dried habaneros, 2 chipotle, 2 guajillo, 1 mulato, 1 ancho and about 4 de arbols since I was running out of dried peppers. 3 chipotles in adobo too. I don't really want to put my entire amount of dried habaneros in so any suggestions on getting it hotter? I'm looking for fresh habanero level heat.

I'm in the UK which is part of the problem with getting fresh peppers

Put more fat in your chili? Capsaicin is more soluble in oils/alcohols than water, so you might be able to get more mileage out of the chilies you do have by using fattier meat.

EDIT: Also try using beer as the majority or only added liquid. If you're going to add tomato use paste instead of whole, crushed or pureed versions.

NO THAT'S NOT ME!!

So, I've been itching to make some chili for the last month, but my wife's been on a no-red-meat kick, and meat in general has been really expensive. So, I caved and we're now apparently doing tofu chili with soy chorizo. Yeah... I'm trying to make the best of it. Any recommendations or recipes that you guys can recommend? I've got the cubed up tofu marinading in some really good Worcestershire sauce and oil right now to give it at least some kind of flavor. I'm used to doing the typical chunky style chili with stew beef, so I'm looking to keep it similar to that sort of style, but probably with slightly more lean towards the "mex" side of tex/mex.
