Chef George Rodrigues took viewers through every step of making the chili that led him to victory on “Beat Bobby Flay.” He shared with viewers why he added certain ingredients, how they worked with others and what flavors they bring out in the chili.

“There are very few things in the world that can bring everyone in the world together, and I think cooking is one of those things,” Rodrigues said.

The recipe is customizable to individuals’ tastes, and Rodrigues recommended pairing this chili with something crunchy, such as chips or French fries, and your favorite beverage. He demonstrated how to make Brazil's national cocktail, a caipirinha.

At the end of the demonstration, Rodrigues also demonstrated his plating process, which included cheese, fresh herbs and chips to go with the chili.
