Chili for a crowd. This recipe uses 5 pounds of beef, cooked slowly with onions, garlic, beer, tomato paste, green and jalapeno peppers, chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
 

Ingredients

  • 5 pounds lean beef chuck or round, cut in 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup veggie oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds onions, chopped
  • 6 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 cups dark beer
  • 1 pint beef broth
  • 1 6-oz. can tomato paste
  • 1 1/2 cups diced green chilies
  • 2 or 3 fresh jalapeno peppers, minced very fine
  • 3/4 cup chili powder
  • 3 tbsp. ground cumin seed
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. dried oregano
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Method

Brown beef in oil. Remove beef, reserving oil in pan. Cool onions and garlic in reserved oil until tender. Add beer, beef broth & tomato paste; add beef and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 1 hour, stirring frequently. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer for another hour; stirring occasionally. This seems like a lot, but it really isn't. Leftovers can be frozen.

 

Notes: The "5 pounds of beef chuck or round, cut in cubes" seemed like a lot of big beef, so I use half hamburger (ground beef.)
