Shopping List:
2.25 lbs Ground Beef (80/20 or 85/15)
4 cloves minced garlic
1 diced onion
2 large jalapenos
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 green bell pepper
3-4 slices of thick cut bacon (optional)
4 oz black beans
15 oz kidney beans
smoked paprika, ancho chile powder, chipotle chile powder (to taste 1/4 tsp or so)
cinnamon sugar (to taste)
salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder
6-8 oz mexican beer or chicken stock
1 tbsp better than bouillon chicken or beef base
2 tbsp tomato paste
worcestershire sauce & hot sauce (to taste)
14oz can crushed tomatoes
8oz can tomato soup
14oz fire roasted diced tomatoes
3 dashes of liquid smoke
2-3 tbsp brown sugar (if needed)
Cayenne pepper (as needed for heat)
Directions:
Start by adding a bit of cooking oil and your 3 slices of thick cut bacon. Once bacon begins to get crispy, remove it and add the ground meat directly to the pot. Once browned, begin adding your seasonings as seen in the video. Next, add in your diced veggies and mix to incorporate. Deglaze the pot with your beer or chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Begin adding in your tomato products and beans and cover to simmer for 30-60 minutes stirring occasionally (do not let anything stick to the bottom and burn! heat should be on low) Taste for seasoning and add whatever you feel it needs (more spice – add cayenne or hot sauce… add brown sugar or cinnamon sugar to sweeten if desired) Total cook time should be around 2 hours to allow all of the flavors to come together. Serve with your favorite chili toppings and enjoy!
