1 lb. of lean ground beef or turkey or sirloin
1 large yellow onion – chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 red bell pepper – chopped
1 yellow bell pepper – chopped
1 green bell pepper – chopped
1 can of kidney beans
1 can of black beans
1 can of white beans great northern or cannellini
1 can of fire roasted diced tomatoes – undrained
3 cups low-sodium beef broth
11oz of Guinness(about 1 can)
2 Tablespoons of tomato paste
SPICES
3 Tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 Tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (also called baking cocoa)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 Tablespoon honey
2 heaping Tablespoons of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon smoked or regular paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal/ or regular cornstarch
Over medium-high heat, saute the onion until translucent, then add beef/turkey and season with salt and pepper. Once beef/turkey is cooked, stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add your meat mixture to your crock pot and then add the remaining ingredients and spices. Give your chili a little stir to combine, turn to high then cover and walk away for about 3 hours. Give it a little taste and if it’s still a little bitter from the guinness add another table spoon of honey and brown sugar. Let simmer for 10 minutes then retaste. If taste is fine go nuts.
*NOTE*. I always double this recipe and use 1lb of ground sirloin and 1lb of ground beef and instead of 6 Tblspoons of regular Chili powder I use 3TBLspoons of regular and 3 TBLSpoons of Ancho Chili Powder. I also only use about 4 cups of broth when I double it because I like my chili thicker.
