This is a beer base chili that has won a few ribbons in chili cook off's. It's retired to home use now, so I don't mind sharing.
Hoof and Hops chili
12 ounce Pork chorizo
1 pound Beef stew meat cut in cubes
1 pound Ground chuck
24 ounce Beer (pale ale's work best)
15 ounce Tomato Sauce
15 ounce Tomato canned / diced with juice
15 ounce Pinto beans
15 ounce Black beans
4 cloves fresh Garlic
1 tbsp Kosher Salt (sea salt works good as well)
2 tbsp Chili powder
1/2 tsp Cumin
1 large Onion white or purple chopped
2 tbsp Olive oil
6 ounce Cheddar shredded
Instructions
1. Mix beer, tomato sauce, diced tomato's, half of the chopped onion, and spices in a 6 Qt pot over medium heat until it begins to simmer. DO NOT ADD BEANS AT THIS TIME!
2. While liquids are heating up, brown stew meat in frying pan with the 2 Tablspoons of olive oil over high heat. Once browned add meat to pot.
3. Brown Ground beef and chorizo until water in meat evaporates. Do not drain off fat unless it is excessive. Add to the pot once done
4. Cover pot and let simmer on low for 3 hours or until stew meat is tender.
5. Once stew meat is tender, drain and rinse pinto and black beans well. Add to the pot. If the chili is too thick add water as necessary.
6. Continue to simmer for 30 minutes, then serve with remaining onion and shredded cheese on top

Only suggestions I would offer is that different chili powder can taste radically different. I use Gepharts(I think that's how it's spelled) With the time frame you are dealing with you don't have time to experiment much so I would stick to a set recipe. Also you may want to try a mix of textures on your meat. Some ground, some diced and some chunks. Kens recipe is a great starting point. Forthwinds' looks good too, with the combination of chorizo and stew meat but be careful with the chorizo you'll get a lot of orange fat floating on the top and that will kill you on appearance. Good luck.JT

It has been printed and saved. Hell, I may make it this weekend. Of course I'll have to cook something else for the women folk in th house who can't eat anything with any heat at all.
But I'm sure Michael and I will enjoy the chili.
I bet it would be good with smoked brisket too.

Yes it is, I think there is a thread around here I did a few years ago when I made Cincinnati Brisket Two Way Chili... It was really good, different but good..Ken
