2 cups Diced Yellow Onion 

½ cup Diced Yellow Bell Pepper 

½ cup Diced Red Bell Pepper 

½ cup Diced Green Bell Pepper 

2 Cans Diced Tomato 

1 Can Crushed Tomato 

2 tbsp Tomato Paste 

2 tbsp Diced Chipotle Peppers with Sauce 

6 Cloves Garlic Diced 

2 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder 

4 tbsp Chili Powder 

1 tbsp Cumin 

1 tsp Cayenne Pepper 

1 tsp Smoked Paprika 

2 tbsp Roasted Beef Bullion (Better than Bullion) 

Red Wine Reduction 

1 Beer (Bud, DosEquis, Yuengling, etc) 

1 cup Beef Stock

1.  In a heavy Dutch oven, brown the ground beef. Do not drain!! 

2.  Spoon the beef out of the pot and reserve the fat. 

3.  Over medium heat, in the beef fat, saute the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. 

4.  Add remaining vegetables and cook for 3-5 minutes. 

5.  Add everything else, adjust seasonings to personal preference. 

6.  Add salt now if chili needs it. 

7.  Cover and simmer until liquid is to your desired thickness. I find that chili should be ready in 40 minutes or so. 

8.  Top with a dollop of sour cream, sharp cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeno, fresh cilantro and a shot of Srirachi. 

9.  Enjoy!!
