Anyone have a favorite here or know what goes into a home made version?
Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
Take a good salsa, puree it and cook it down some.

Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
Grabbed it from the wifes recipe box marked easy recipes!!!
1 stick butter
Medium saucepan
3 tbsp. sifted flour
1 cup water
3 tsp. beef bouillon granules
2 tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
Step 1Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Slowly add the sifted flour, stirring well in order to create an even paste. Make sure that you work out any clumps for a smooth and perfect enchilada sauce.
Step 2Dissolve the beef bouillon granules into the water, then pour into the saucepan.
Step 3Add the chili powder and ground cumin. Go easy on the chili powder if you can't handle spicy foods. Stir in the chili powder a little at a time until you reach your desired spice level.
Step 4Simmer your easy enchilada sauce until it thickens to the desired consistency.
Let me know if decent!!!

A can of Old El Paso and set it on the railing. A nice clean shot at the rim with a Super Colibri and pow
Perfect sauce.
Honestly I do the same thing Blaine does. I like the thick, heavy chunky stuff.

Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
Recruiting ideas from for my eastern brother. He does things in a very complicated manner in cooking. He doesn't start from scratch - he makes he scratch. Similar approach to madman's wife except he must do it all the hard way. I know these southwestern guys know some deep dark secrets about this.

Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
+1 My cooking skills, what little I had of them, degenerated from lack of use starting about 20 years ago. This would coincide with my marriage to what is possibly the best cook on the planet. In another coincidence, my weight began a steady northward climb at this same time!Sixgun wrote:Sorry OS, I can barely boil water. These things get directed to my better half. ------------Sixgun
The limit of my meal preparation now days is pouring ceral out of a box for breakfast. Heck, I don't even get much grill time anymore!

Y, ask your Yife! Maybe she will contribute some more help.
Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
I would never think of cooking my leverguns...
to make a sauce, enchilada or otherwise, I head into the kitchen.
Don't have a recipe, that's what all them books and the internet is for.

Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
I am looking for actual beer and enchiladas road tested perfection here.
Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
Products offered for sale from the SANTA CRUZ Chili & Spice Co.Old Savage wrote:I am looking for actual beer and enchiladas road tested perfection here.

A good enchilada sauce starts with good chile powder.
If you like that good red chili flavor without all the heat that usually goes with it, you will like the Santa Cruz brand in the red box. It has some heat but won't make you sweat or your nose run while you are eating.
They have been making it for many years, I lived just down the road from them for 40 + years, I moved back east 9 years ago and have ordered a case from them every year , I crave it.
The sauce I have used for years goes like this
one QT water
one 15 oz can tomato sauce, Hunts or Del Monte brand
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1/4 tsp cumin and Mexican style oregano
Santa Cruz chili to taste. I like about 5 tsp but it varies year to year with the chile crop.
Salt to taste
Two TBS shortning
Four TBS flour
If you want more heat get you a small can of the EL PATO( YELLOW CAN) brand mexican tomato sauce and start adding it by tsp till you get the heat you want, freeze the rest for next time.
Hope this helps

Re: OT Leverguns enchilada sauce
From Jack,
This looks like a pretty good recipe Bro', I think I'll try it exactly as written. I just ordered some of that Santa Cruz Chili Powder.

I'd have to assume that "One Eyed Joe" knows exactly what the phrase "better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick", means.
Good luck with the sauce.
