Eric's Chili
A great chili that includes beef, sausage, black beans and corn. Delicious!
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound hot pork sausage
- Salt and pepper to season meat
- 2 red onions chopped
- 2 green peppers seeded and chopped
- 2 jalapenos seeded and chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic minced
- 3 tablespoons cumin
- 3 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 12 ounces dark beer
- 2 cans of diced tomatoes
- 1 can of black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 cup of frozen or canned corn
- 1 can beef broth low sodium
Instructions
- 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 it all 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.
Notes
If you like it spicy, I add about a 1/2 cup of Sriracha to the mix, but if you’re serving a crowd I usually forgo this and just have it available to add individually.
