Last Friday (1/19/07), the Solaris and Storage software folks entered our "OpenSolaris Community Green Chili" in the 2nd annual Sun STK Tape and Library chili contest. We published our recipe in advance of the competition under the Chili Development and Distribution License. On chili day we  brought our binary distro (the chili), open source code (recipe), license terms (CDDL), and last but not least our implementation notes (the real secret to great chili).

Our Storage executives awarded the first ever software entry the Most Creative award. Next year's competition is already heating up with the promise that others will use our open source to create their own entries.

In chili or software open source improves the competitive landscape.

Here now is our entry... many thanks to community member Ted Manley for his binary distribution.

OpenSolaris Community Green Chili
Original recipe from Craig Toogood/Mark Nelson

3-5# pork chops
1/2 large onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic

1 27oz can whole green chilis, cut into strips
1 7oz can diced green chilis
1 7oz can diced jalapenos
1 qt. canned tomatoes
2 tsp salt

1/2 c flour
2 1/2 c water

- dice and de-fat pork chops, brown in skillet with onion and garlic(brown in Crisco)
- in 6-qt crock pot, combine: pork (with fat drained and saved), green chili, jalapenos, tomatoes, and salt
- make gravy in skillet with 5-7 T pork fat, flour, and water; add gravy to crock pot, stir, cook on low for nine hours

______________________________________________________________
Solaris and Storage Software community implementation details(from Mark Nelson):
- I call the grocery store ahead of time and get 3-4# of diced pork (or pork for green chili, depending on where you shop).
- Unless you get really lean pork, the Crisco is unnecessary.
- Unless I'm doing other cooking, I use one medium onion.
- I use 3-4 cloves of garlic.
- I use 2 4oz cans of jalapenos, one red and one green.  Unless you like it killer hot, I drain and rinse them.
- I drain and save the water from the whole green chilis, then use it as part of the 2 1/2 cups of water in the gravy
