    1 hr 25 mins
  • Total Time
    1 hrs 20 mins

Ingredients

  • Two pounds of ground beef
  • Two pounds of ground pork
  • Diced two large sweet onions
  • Chopped three large green onions
  • Minced four large garlic cloves
  • Two cans of fire-roasted diced tomatoes (14.5 ounces each)
  • A can or bottle of beer (12 fluid ounces)
  • Half a cup of chili powder
  • A quarter cup of ground cumin
  • Two ounces of fire-roasted diced green chile peppers
  • Two tablespoons of cornmeal
  • One large dried ancho chile pepper
  • A jigger of tequila (1.5 fluid ounces)
  • Chopped pickled jalapeno peppers from six slices
  • A teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder
  • A teaspoon of salt
  • Half a cup of frozen fire-roasted corn
  • Black beans from a can (15 ounces), rinsed and drained

Step 1

Begin by heating a spacious stockpot on medium heat, creating the perfect stage for the culinary magic about to unfold. Commence the flavorful journey by sautéing a delightful mix of beef and pork until they transform into a delectable brown hue, a process that should take roughly 10 minutes. Once done, expertly drain any excess grease from the meaty concoction and gracefully return the pot to the stove, ready for the next chapter.

Step 2

Next, infuse the aromatic trio of sweet onions, green onions, and garlic into the sizzling meat blend, allowing them to dance together until the onions turn beautifully translucent, a splendid sight to behold after about 5 to 7 minutes of mingling.

Step 3

As the symphony of flavors continues to evolve, introduce an ensemble cast of tomatoes, beer, chili powder, cumin, chile peppers, cornmeal, ancho chile pepper, tequila, jalapeño pepper, cocoa powder, and salt to the main stage. Let the ingredients harmonize into a delightful melody as the mixture gently simmers, coaxing the tomatoes to gracefully dissolve into a luscious liquid over the course of 1 to 2 hours.

Step 4

To elevate the composition further, incorporate the supporting actors of corn and black beans into the chili, coaxing them to join the flavorful performance. Allow the ensemble to reach its crescendo as they simmer together, reaching the perfect temperature in a final act that lasts 10 to 15 minutes.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep It Fresh: Store your fresh ingredients in airtight containers or resealable bags to maintain their flavor and texture.
  2. 2. Freeze For Later: If you have leftover chili, portion it into freezer-safe containers for quick and easy meals on busy days.
