The Kind of Supper You Remember: Steak Chili and Glazed Cornbread

Oda Mae Steak Chili

Hearty, slow-simmered, and unapologetically beef-forward

Seasoning: Oda Mae Steak

Ingredients

• 1½–2 lb steak, cut into bite-size cubes (sirloin, chuck eye, or flat iron)

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 large onion, diced

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 2½ tbsp Oda Mae Steak Rub

• 1 (15 oz) can navy beans, drained and rinsed

• 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed

• 2 cups beef broth

• 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce

• Salt, to taste (if needed)

For Serving

• Shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby-Jack, or a blend)

• Sour cream

Instructions

1. Brown the steak

   Heat olive oil in a heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add steak cubes in batches and brown well on all sides. Remove and set aside.

2. Build the base

   Lower heat to medium. Add onion and cook until soft and lightly golden, about 5–7 minutes. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds, just until fragrant.

3. Season with intention

   Sprinkle in the Oda Mae Steak Rub and stir into the onions and garlic, letting the spices bloom briefly in the heat.

4. Simmer

   Return steak to the pot. Add beef broth, tomato sauce, navy beans, and black beans. Stir well.

5. Low and slow

   Bring to a gentle simmer, cover partially, and cook 45–60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is tender and the chili thickens.

6. Finish & serve

   Taste and adjust salt if needed. Serve hot, topped with shredded cheese and a generous spoon of sour cream.

Maple–Brown Sugar Glazed Cornbread Skillet

Seasoning: The Sweet One

Ingredients

Cornbread

• 1 box cornbread mix (prepared according to box, with the following specifics)

• ⅓ cup milk

• 1 egg

• 1 small can corn, drained and heated briefly before adding

Maple–Sweet One Glaze

• 3 tbsp butter

• 2 tbsp maple syrup

• 1½ tbsp brown sugar

• 1–1½ tsp The Sweet One seasoning (to taste)

Instructions

1. Prepare the batter

   In a mixing bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, and egg. Stir just until combined.

2. Add the corn

   Gently fold in the warmed corn. (Heating it first helps it blend evenly and keeps the batter from cooling.)

3. Pan it

   Pour batter into a greased round pan or skillet. This will bake up thicker than a traditional slab-style cornbread—more like a cornbread “round.”

4. Make the glaze

   In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in maple syrup, brown sugar, and The Sweet One seasoning until smooth and glossy.

5. Glaze before baking

   Spoon or brush the glaze generously over the top of the cornbread batter.

6. Bake

   Bake at 400°F (205°C) for 15 minutes, until just set and lightly golden on top.

7. Serve warm

   Best served warm alongside chili, with extra butter if you’re feeling generous.
