Overview:

  • Preparation Time: 30 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 1 hour
  • Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes
  • Servings: 15
  • Cuisine: Tex Mex, Southwestern U.S.
  • Difficulty: Beginner

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 5 onions, diced
  • 1 chili pepper, diced
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 1 can (6 ounces) no-added-salt tomato paste
  • 1 quart low sodium beef broth
  • 4 cans (15 ounces each) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 ounces) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 pound diced filet mignon
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/4 cup chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 bottles (12 ounces each) Guinness beer

Instructions:

  1. Sear the Meat: Heat up 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a large saucepot over medium-high heat until very hot. Add diced filet mignon and cook until seared and browned around the edges. Then, add ground beef and cook until all of the beef is thoroughly browned. Remove the meat and set aside, draining off 3/4 of the fat (leave the rest in the pot).

  2. Sauté Onions and Peppers: To the same pot, add the diced onions and chili pepper. Cook until soft, about 3 minutes.

  3. Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked meat to the pot. Pour in the Guinness and let it boil for 1 minute. Then, add the flour and stir constantly for 1 minute. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef stock. Stir thoroughly.

  4. Simmer the Chili: Reduce the heat to low and add both types of beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, white pepper, and dark brown sugar. Let the chili simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. Finish and Serve: Stir in 1/2 cup more of unsalted butter and the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined. Garnish or serve with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, diced red onions and peppers, extra shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, or fresh chopped cilantro.
