Easy and Delicious Grilled Steak Chili

What I enjoy the most about this recipe, besides the incredible flavors, is the variety of equipment I am able to use in making this chili recipe. First off, I get to fire up my Weber Performer Grill with the Gourmet BBQ System grates, then I get to use my Camp Chef 12″ deep Dutch oven and use it inside of the Weber Performer grill. The Camp Chef 12″ deep Dutch oven fits perfectly inside the center of the Weber Gourmet BBQ System grate, making this a perfect setup for those that have limited space.

A couple of quick notes about the recipe and techniques I used:

  • When grilling the steaks, I used lump charcoal and standard briquettes.
  • The steak rub is Brazos Legends “Sizzlin' Steak Rub”.
  • Cooking the steak to medium rare or medium would be best to help keep the steak as tender as possible.
  • I kept the Weber Performer Grill lid on while cooking the Grilled Steak Chili in the Dutch oven.
  • Keep only a few briquettes on the bottom under the Dutch oven – I had about 10 under mine.
  • Stir chili every 25 – 30 minutes or so to keep the chili from sticking to the bottom.
  • Cook time will vary depending on your conditions – Mine cooked for a little over an hour in the Dutch oven.
