FIERY CHILI WITH RED BEANS

Steps:

• Rinse the beans under cool water, removing and discarding any damaged beans and any foreign material. Place the beans in a large pot with the cold water and 1 teaspoon of the salt, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and cook gently for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, until the beans are tender but not mushy. Set aside; do not drain.
• Cut the beef into 1-inch pieces, and then chop coarsely by hand or in a food processor. When using a food processor, place about 1/2 pound of the chuck in the bowl at a time, and pulse the motor for about 10 seconds.
• Place the pieces of ham rind or bacon in a saucepan, and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until most of the fat has been rendered and the rind is dry and brown. Add the 1 pound of onion pieces and the beef, and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until the meat separates and loses its red color. Stir in the garlic, jalapeno pepper and tomatoes.
• Using a mini-chopper or small coffee grinder, process the coriander seeds, and add them to the saucepan, along with the cumin powder, mustard, red pepper flakes, chili powder and the remaining 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil. Combine the meat mixture and the beans (liquid and all), return to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour. (The mixture will be soupy.)
• Spoon over boiled rice, and garnish with the Cheddar cheese and the chopped onion. Pass the Tabasco sauce and the corn tortillas or tacos.
