Description

Being in Texas, chili is a staple on the few cold days we have each year. This is something I've come up with after years of trying to perfect an easy-to-make and delicious chili. This is a very spicy chili and the perfect meal for a chilly day. The beans are optional here as they traditionally aren't found in Texas chili.

Ingredients
  • 1 ¼ pounds ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped, divided
  • 1 habanero pepper, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
  • 1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL®), drained
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground white pepper
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle amber beer
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 sleeve crackers
Directions
  1. 1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, half the onion, habanero pepper, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the hot skillet until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
  2. 2. Transfer beef mixture to a large pot and add tomato sauce, kidney beans, diced tomatoes with green chiles, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, white pepper, and black pepper.
  3. 3. Bring beef mixture to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Stir in beer, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Continue to simmer chili until flavors blend, about 2 hours.
  4. 4. Spoon chili into bowls and top with Cheddar cheese, crackers, and remaining half onion.
