Instructions:
-
Prepare the Meat: Start by cutting the pork or beef into small 1/2 inch cubes, ensuring they are bite-sized for a delightful texture in every spoonful.
-
Prepare the Vegetables: Clean and finely chop all your vegetables, including the chilies, garlic, jalapenos, onions, and green peppers. Dicing them into small pieces will help distribute the flavors evenly throughout the chili.
-
Heat the Oil: In the largest pot you have, heat some oil over medium-high heat until it’s really hot and shimmering.
-
Brown the Meat: Once the oil is hot, add the cubed meat to the pot and brown it well on all sides. This step is crucial for developing rich flavors in the chili.
-
Add the Vegetables: Once the meat is nicely browned, add in all of your chopped vegetables, allowing them to cook alongside the meat until they are tender and fragrant.
-
Pour in the Beer: Pour the dark beer over the meat and vegetables in the pot. The beer adds a depth of flavor and richness to the chili that is simply irresistible.
-
Add Remaining Ingredients: Now, add in the tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato paste, and spices, including cumin and chili powder, to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
-
Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and let the chili simmer gently for at least 2 hours. The longer it simmers, the more the flavors will develop and meld together beautifully.
-
Adjust Seasonings: Taste the chili as it simmers and adjust the seasonings as needed. You can add more chili powder or salt to suit your taste preferences.
-
Serve: Once the chili is done simmering and the flavors have melded together beautifully, serve it hot. Garnish each serving with grated cheese and a dollop of sour cream for extra creaminess.
-
