Here ya go! I do them over two days. And usually my neighbor and I get together and spend an entire day putting them together and steaming them.

What is the pure red chili?

Ground red chili's - comes in hot, medium or mild. Do not use Chili Powder - that's a different animal all together. If you have any Mexican markets (Carncinerias) around you it's readily available. If not, PM me and I'll send you some since we can get it readily here.
