2 cup(s) chopped onion
4-6 clove(s) chopped garlic
1 bottle(s) beer
1 can(s) 8oz tomato sauce
1 cup(s) beef broth
3 tablespoon(s) chili powder
2 tablespoon(s) cumin
3-6 cube(s) low sodium beef bouillon
2 teaspoon(s) oregano
2 teaspoon(s) paprika
2 teaspoon(s) brown sugar
1 teaspoon(s) cocoa powder
1.5 teaspoon(s) ground coriander
0.5 teaspoon(s) chipotle tabasco
0.5 teaspoon(s) ground chipotle
0.5 teaspoon(s) ground ancho
1 teaspoon(s) flour
1 teaspoon(s) masa
1 tablespoon(s) beef broth
4-6 can(s) rinsed & drained beans (optional, red or black or combo)
1/4 teaspoon(s) cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
1. In a large non-stick Dutch oven, brown the meat in small batches, avoid overcrowding, remove meat as it browns & set aside. Add onions and stir-fry til almost tender then add garlic. When onions are tender, add beer through ancho, stirring thoroughly to combine. Return meat to pan. Bring to boil; reduce heat, cover, simmer for two hours.
2. If you want Texas-style chili, make a slurry of 1tsp flour, 1tsp masa, 1tbs beef broth. Stir into chili, cover, simmer for twenty minutes and you're done.
3. If you want Yankee-style chili, don't use the slurry. Add 4-6 cans of rinsed and drained beans, cover, simmer for twenty or more minutes. Add cinnamon, stir thoroughly and you're done.
4. Set out toppings: grated cheese, chopped onion. Serve with cornbread.
