The other week Dana and I went up to DC to visit our Friends Eric and Laura. Both of us have infants so it was a chance to get out of the house and talk to some adults. For lunch Eric made this great chili that included black beans and corn. It was delicious. So I asked for the recipe and asked for permission to put it up on the web. I had to share it as it was delicious!
Eric’s Chili
In a large saute pan, add the meat along with salt, pepper and garlic. Start to brown the meat.
About halfway through the browning process, add the onions, green peppers and jalapenos to the pan to sweat them out a bit.
Once the meat is browned and the veggies are softened, add the mixture to a crock pot along with the diced tomatoes (juice and all), tomato paste, beans, corn, cumin, chili powder, and paprika.
Then add the beer. Finally add the beef stock until the liquid just covers the mixture.
Give it a good mix and set it on low for 6-8 hours.
Make sure to have some diced onions and jalapenos to top, as well as cheese and sour cream.
If you like it spicy, add about a 1/2 cup of Sriracha to the mix, but if you’re serving a crowd forgo this and just have it available to add individually.

That sounds great for the cold days that will be headed our way in the near future. Something a little different than the usual chili.
I agree. It doesn't look like normal chili but it mimics the flavors of chili. It is hearty and delicious. If you try it let me know what you think.
