I Love This Chili


Here is an amazing chili recipe that would be great on Super Bowl Sunday. It cooks while you enjoy friends and the game.


1/2 pound of bacon, chopped into bite size pieces
1 bottle of beer
2 pounds ground beef (I recommend 90/10 so that you don't have a lot of grease other than the bacon drippings)
2 (16 ounce) cans kidney beans, do not drain or rinse
2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained (If you like spicy chili, get one can of diced tomatoes with chilis added.)
1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 medium onions, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons chili powder
2 T. Worchestershire sauce
1 T. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 bay leaf


In a large pot or dutch oven, fry bacon on medium heat for about 2 minutes;drain off all but 2 tablespoons of grease and add onions, bell pepper, and garlic. Continue to saute for 2 minutes. Add ground beef and brown. When ground beef is browned, add beer and de-glaze, making sure all the little pieces of bacon, meat, onions, garlic, and peppers come off the bottom of the pot. Let mixture reduce for about twenty minutes. Add all other ingredients and let mixture come to boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 2 hours. Top steaming bowls of chili with a dollop of sour cream, some shredded cheese and slice green onions. This is also good served in toasted bread bowls.
