Step 1

Cook the ground meat and sausage over medium heat in a large saucepan or non-stick Dutch oven. When almost cooked, add the diced onion and peppers and cook until softened.

Step 2

Add chopped garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, chipotle powder, dried oregano, salt and cayenne powder. Cook for a minute or two until the mixture is aromatic.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the bacon and onion mixture. Cook until ground beef is no longer pink.

Step 4

Insert a can of beer, rinsed and drained beans, crushed tomatoes with their juice, and diced tomatoes with their juice.

Step 5

-Cover and simmer over low heat (for me it’s number 3) for 1.5 hours. Add a little water, if necessary. The first hour, stir the pot every 10-15 minutes, and the last 30 minutes, stir the pot every 5-10 minutes. You may need to stir more often, depending on your pot and the temperature of your burner.

Step 6

Taste of salt.
