Red Chili Beef

This one is about pepper flavor more than pepper heat. Whole-muscle top round is marinated for two days in a red chili pepper sauce. Red chilies are picked fully ripe, when their natural sugars have caught up with the heat, so the flavor comes through rich and layered.

Expect a mild warmth with plenty of depth behind it. It's a good step up for anyone who finds teriyaki too tame but isn't looking for a fire.
